Call for Papers: Taking Root. Conserving Trees and/as Heritage

We are pleased to announce a new Call for Papers for the international conference Taking Root: Conserving Trees and/as Heritage, taking place on 29–30 October 2026 at the University of Vienna.

The conference invites scholars, practitioners, and artists to rethink trees as heritage – materially, symbolically, and politically – and to explore their conservation at the intersection of nature, culture, and art. We welcome multidisciplinary perspectives and both traditional and experimental formats.

📅 Abstract deadline: 30 March 2026
📍 Location: University of Vienna
