The final conference of the HERA joint research project Public Spaces: Culture and Integration in Europe took place 7-9 September 2022 in Wroclaw, Poland. 

Thanks to the fund dedicated to ERC, Dr. Laurence Prempain of the Finnish team Bestrom (Beyond Ste­reo­types: Cultural Ex­changes and the Ro­mani Con­tri­bu­tion to European Pub­lic Spaces) could join our colleagues Eve Rosenhaft (University of Liverpool) and Anna Piotrowska (Jagiellon University).

By engaging with the theme of Humanities in Crisis/Crisis in Humanities, the conference programme aimed to place HERA at the forefront of European debates about the humanities, encouraged discussions about issues relating to cultural value and heritage alongside themes which examined migration, conflict, and the changing nature of the public sphere.

In addition, the event created a platform for Early Career Researchers to disseminate their work and engage in career development opportunities.
