magazine ARA News Archives and Records Association Annual Conference 2024 Our 2024 conference will be in Birmingham from 28th to 30th August 2024. The theme of next year’s conference is: ‘Climate and Crisis: Tackling it Together’ and a Call for Papers went out earlier this month. Our 2023 Conference took the theme ‘communities’ and to build on this we now want to address the major crises and challenges facing our communities and our profession, learning from our community and building stronger responses, together. The Climate Crisis is the challenge of an era with the responsibility to take action falling upon us 12 all. Our profession must respond, learn from best practice and find new ways to contribute to the global effort. Our work faces other crises not least funding and resourcing challenges. We are better tackling this together too, and we want the conference to be a catalyst for this. Areas for submissions might include: • How can we manage our collections and buildings to make the minimal impact on the environment? How can the exhortation in our professional code of ethics to do this be truly lived and practiced? There is growing expertise in building design and management across the sector, can we share and learn from this? |
