"Heritage in 20 years: What will matter most?"

Join the rest of the sector and debate what will matter most in 20 years time.

This year's online Heritage Debate (taking place on 24 November, 5-7pm) will discuss – Heritage in 20 Years: What will matter most?

About Heritage Debate

Each year, The Heritage Alliance’s Heritage Debate offers the chance for all those interested in heritage to come together and explore key challenges facing the sector. This year, attendees will be invited to collectively examine which of the key questions facing the sector will be most important in 20 years’ time.

This Year's Topic

Five panellists will make the case for a specific priority and why that priority will be the most important issue for the sector in 2042. At the end of the debate, all attendees will take the role of funders and will have the chance to allocate fictional funding between the 5 priorities.

The five issues the panel will present and defend the importance of will be:

Community value

Inherent value

Business value

Climate crisis

Skills and workforce

For the Whole Sector
