The journal offers global and intercultural insights into Cultural Heritage Studies, Public Archaeology, and Museum Studies. It promotes discussion on current issues in heritage and heritage management at the intersections of war, conflict, environmental challenges, and tourism, and aims to amplify the voices of diverse stakeholders within the Heritage sector.
