The Italian Association for Industrial Archaeological Heritage – AIPAI, on its 25th anniversary, promoted the Second States-General of Industrial Heritage with the aim to debate and discuss industrial heritage from an international and multidisciplinary perspective.
Within this prestigious framework, our China Room fellow, Giorgia Cestaro, is presenting, along with EPFL PhD candidate Helena Roux, some data on the Chinese industrial heritage, the result of their latest research work on the role of industrial legacy in urban regeneration linked to 2022 Beijing Winter Olympic Games.
The presentation will be on Friday 10th of June at 17;15 in “Sala Mecenate”, at Santuario di Ercole Vincitore, Istituto Va-Ve | MiC, Via degli Stabilimenti 5, Tivoli.
