All individuals and communities have the right to benefit from cultural heritage and landscape to the same extent that they have a duty to preserve its authenticity and cultural diversity as a human right. This declaration encourages deep reflection on heritage management ethics and practices so that the challenges facing present and future generations can be addressed. ICOMOS can steer this process thanks to a holistic vision of harmonious development focused on the potential of cultural heritage as a testimony of peace and cohesion. In 2014 ICOMOS celebrated its 18th General Assembly and Scientific Symposium dedicated to the theme of “Cultural Heritage and Landscape as Human Values”. This declaration reflects the aims of ICOMOS and its work with UNESCO in assessing tangible and intangible values associated with World Heritage properties, and is an opportunity to bring together the organisation’s specialist skills. Among other discussions that took place at the Florence Symposium, it was suggested that evaluating and assessing a site as World Heritage should be considered as an ethical commitment to safeguarding and respecting human “values” in order to protect the spirit of place 1 and people’s identity so as to improve their quality of life. This is also an extraordinary occasion for the ICOMOS community to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the Venice Charter and the 20th Anniversary of the Nara Document. We therefore celebrate both our own founding act, demonstrating its potential, and also a key document resulting from many scientific and philosophical debates on authenticity 2 , that has promoted the diversity of cultural expression 3. In response to today’s challenges, the main aim of the 2014 Symposium was to facilitate the inclusion and participation of people and groups from a variety of cultures and to move forward in defining principles, strategies, standards and practices that can contribute both to the recognition of the human values of cultural heritage, as well as to safeguarding and encouraging cultural diversity, working together to develop the necessary organizational frameworks and skills 4 . These principles have been well expressed in previous international documents 5 and founding charters on safeguarding and protecting human rights and cultural heritage 6 .

  • Investigating the Geographies of Community-Based Public Art and Gentrification in Downtown Eastside, Vancouver
    Investigating the Geographies of Community-based Public Art and Gentrification in Downtown Eastside, Vancouver By Teréz Szöke A Thesis presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfilment of requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Geography Guelph, Ontario, Canada ©Teréz Szoke, September, 2015 ABSTRACT INVESTIGATION THE GEOGRAPHIES OF COMMUNITY-BASED PUBLUC ART AND GENTRIFICATION IN DOWNTOWN EASTSIDE, VANCOUVER Teréz Szöke Advisor: University of Guelph, 2014 Dr. Kate Parizeau Infamous as Canada’s poorest postal code, Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside (DTES) is considered a blank slate fertile for urban redevelopment. In response to this narrative, visually expressive demonstrations and community-based public art (CBPA) actively reclaim urban space for its inhabitants, and boldly resist gentrification. This thesis advances scholarly understandings of the impact of CBPA by exploring artists’ intended impacts of CBPA projects and how they are interpreted in the minds of the public. Through semi-structured interviews and two consecutive circle discussions, I identified three significant social functions of CBPA in the DTES. The 301 surveys completed by passersby at three CBPA sites revealed that CBPA projects act as both a barrier and a conduit for gentrification. Key concepts that emerged throughout this thesis include: therapeutic landscapes and visual democracy. This research seeks to challenge dominant discourses that construct the DTES as a passive community subject to externally-prescribed solutions to local issues. iii Land Acknowledgement It is with honour and gratitude that I acknowledge that this research has taken place on the traditional territories of the Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), selílwitulh (Tsliel-waututh, People of the Inlet), and xʷməθkʷəy̓ əm (Musqueam, People of the River Grass) Nations Figure 1: Indigenous Street Art in the DTES (Photos by Teréz Szöke.

    SPECTACLE, SPECTRALITY, AND THE EVERYDAY: SETTLER COLONIALISM, ABORIGINAL ALTERITY, AND INCLUSION IN VANCOUVER by NATALIE J. K. BALOY B.A. Honours, Eastern Michigan University, 2006 M.A., The University of British Columbia, 2008 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE AND POSTDOCTORAL STUDIES (Anthropology) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) April 2014 © Natalie J. K. Baloy, 2014 Abstract This dissertation examines everyday social relations in the settler colonial city of Vancouver. Its contemporary ethnographic focus updates and reworks historical and political analyses that currently comprise the growing body of scholarship on settler colonialism as a distinct socio-political phenomenon. I investigate how non-Aboriginal residents construct and relate to Aboriginal alterity. The study is situated in three ethnographic sites, united by their emphasis on “including” the Aboriginal Other: (1) the 2010 Winter Olympics, which featured high-profile forms of Aboriginal participation (and protest); (2) the Mount Pleasant public library branch, which displays a prominent Aboriginal collection and whose staff works closely with the urban Aboriginal community; and (3) BladeRunners, an inner-city construction program that trains and places Aboriginal street youth in the local construction industry. Participants in this research include non-Aboriginal “inclusion workers” as well as non-Aboriginal patrons at the library, construction workers on a BladeRunners construction placement site, and audiences at Aboriginal Olympic events. I explore how my participants’ affective knowledges shape and are shaped by spatial and racializing processes in the emergent settler colonial present. My analysis reveals how everyday encounters with Aboriginal alterity are produced and experienced through spectacular representations and spectral (or haunting) Aboriginal presence, absence, and possibility in the city.
