OKRE Development Rooms: Preservation Era

Free

The Roy family’s obsession with power and position in Succession, Wanda’s desperate attempts to protect her dream life with Vision, and Joe Exotic’s questionable approach to conservation…..how we preserve what we value provides a rich source of creative inspiration.  

At January’s OKRE Development Rooms join experts by experience, researchers from around the world, and international leaders from content development to inspire and support the creation of your next big project. 

Participants will be able to join experts with diverse and unexpected stories and perspectives to share in breakout rooms. These include:

  • Earth BioGenome Project: Sequencing Everything on the Planet (Mark Blaxter, Wellcome Sanger Institute)
  • Rescuing what we didn’t preserve (Meera Sabaratnam, SOAS University of London)
  • Roma people: Remembered through their history not their present (János Lang, Artistic Director, Ando Glaso)
  • Beyond the buildings: Preserving living history (Michael Terwey, National Trust Scotland)

In the plenary session, Dr Maria Castrillo from the Imperial War Museum will provide a guide to accessing unexpected stories in the IWM archives.
