Dear Colleagues,
Welcome to Kalmar Castle on October 6th – 8th, for the annual General Assembly of the Association of Castles and Museums Around the Baltic Sea, and to the international conference “Culture Heritage for a Sustainable Future”.
Join us for three days during which the members of the association will have a chance to meet, together with the new castle and fortress network of the National Property Board of Sweden. This is the place for exciting discussions – a forum for exploring the matter of what sustainable development can be, and how we can interact with our cultural heritage, both in the present and the future. The three dimensions of sustainable development; the economic, the social, and the environmental, are waiting eagerly for us to get involved.
Warmly welcome!
Mimmi Mannheimer and Meg Nömgård
