2024 RSA Annual Conference Global Challenges, Regional Collaboration and the Role of Places, Co-organiser of SS59: Cultural Aspects of Regional Development (Open Session) Session Organisers: Jenny Kanellopoulou, Manchester Metropolitan University, UK Aggelos Panayiotopoulos, Liverpool John Moores, UK Nikos Ntounis, Manchester Metropolitan University, UK The aim of this open session is to broaden the discussion on the role and the impact of alternative, popular and counter-cultures on the development of regions and places. The panel seeks to explore cultures and groups often overseen or neglected in the broader discussion of regional development and while doing so, also address issues of belonging and spatial inequality on sub-national level. The panel welcomes contributions on the topic of – for instance – alternative festivals and events (including music, tattoo or food festivals and pride events), dark and alternative types of tourism, urban squats and resistance to gentrification, protests and activism in the form of cultural events, and other forms of cultural expression and participation that are characterised as popular/ alternative/ fringe or provocative. The panel is further open to innovative methodological and epistemological contributions pertaining to the above issues (including – for instance – queer and feminist approaches), aiming to revisit the concepts of regional culture and heritage, whilst considering how alternative cultures can affect genius loci and place identity, https://www.regionalstudies.org/news/2024annual-special-sessions/?fbclid=IwAR3JSjqJciwAfU7UhFDnz7L8aSd4NquAIK3Tp8nchNtJdCW1Ly82gg6AzUQ#!. 2024

2023 RSA Annual Conference Transforming Regions: Policies and Planning for People and Places, Co-organiser of SS16: Regional Challenges in Culture: Moving Beyond Tangible-Intangible Heritage Session Organisers: Jenny Kanellopoulou, Manchester Metropolitan University, UK Nikos Ntounis, Manchester Metropolitan University, UK Aggelos Panayiotopoulos, Liverpool John Moores University, UK Session Description: The proposed panel seeks to address the issues of misalignment between Intangible (ICH) and Tangible Cultural Heritage (TCH) in urban ensembles. It follows the impact of touristification /gentrification on these urban ensembles, once established as protected under the relevant UNESCO Conventions, and examines the deleterious effects the over-promotion of TCH can have on those aspects of ICH that ultimately contribute to the urban ensemble’s protected character, including the disposition of the local population and the changes in the fabric of everyday life. It seeks to shift the focus on the theoretical gap between the two terms and explore the Digital Heritage (DH) narrative as a common conceptual basis, bridging any theoretical gaps in the Cultural Heritage protection narrative by incorporating a multi-stakeholder approach that will enable the multiplicity of voices that make up the protected place to be heard. The panel seeks to attract interdisciplinary approach on the topic, under the unifying umbrella of cultural management and regional development, and it is open for a discussion on cultural heritage protection and management from a holistic, developmental perspective., https://www.regionalstudies.org/news/2023-rsa-annual-special-sessions/#!. 2023

Other invited event:

Guest Lecture: Tourism and Development in Yugoslavia, Department of History, Geography and Social Sciences, Edge Hill University, Tourism and Development in Yugoslavia The lecture will explore lived experiences of Eastern European Communism beyond the stereotypes, in the context of what some historians have termed ‘socialist consumerism’ in the later part of the Communist period. We will do this via an examination of a case study of tourism in socialist Yugoslavia – about which our guest speaker, a specialist on political, cultural and spatial aspects of tourism, has recently published research. How did tourism in Yugoslavia in general, including Croatia and the city of Dubrovnik in particular, link to socialist ideas of development? And how far was Yugoslavia exceptional in a broader Eastern European context?. 2024

Reclaiming Place as ‘Home’: Lived Experience, Meaning and Space, Faculty of Urban and Regional Development, HSE Universtity, Moscow, https://gorod.hse.ru/en/announcements/325270127.html The notion of ‘home’ connects people with place. Using the case studies of Santorini and Dubrovnik, we explore how lived experience and socio-spatial analysis can contribute to a critical discussion of local identity and use of space. Lived experience, in the case of Santorini, was explored through the use of narrative interviewing where ‘home’ emerged as a vanishing yet important sense of place. In Dubrovnik, socio-spatial analysis proposed a new urban armature. Going beyond mere structural support, this urban armature brings together space and meaning, to facilitate shared experiences that bind communities together. Thus, place is reimagined as home.. 2019
