Through ongoing collaboration between academic institutions and civil society organizations, the promotion of inclusive narratives about modernization, colonialism, and war at heritage sites—with active participation from future generations—can significantly contribute to the process of peacebuilding and reconciliation. The International Seminar on Heritage Interpretation, organized since 2022, serves as a valuable platform for bringing together diverse stakeholders to engage in good-faith discussions on interpreting contested heritage.
