Översikt/Overview

I am since 1997 a senior lecturer at the University of Gothenburg, Department of Conservation (UGOT-C), and since 2019 Associated Professor (Docent). I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Integrated Conservation of Built Environments, UGOT-C (1983), and a Doctoral degree in Conservation, UGOT-C, on a dissertation in 1997 on photogrammetry, information management, and heritage practices.

My research has covered methods for documentation and recording of physical properties of heritage; industrial heritage and the possibilities to develop such remains for the benefit of continued societal development; and maritime heritage – both the heritage afloat as well as coastal communities.

Between 2008 and 2012, I was moderator for Heritage Studies as part of the UGOT initiative on strengthening cross-disciplinary research. This research initiative contributed to the establishment of the Association of Critical Heritage Studies in 2012. Between 2012 and 2018 I was Head of department (UGOT-C), after which I did a sabbatical in Tirana, Albania, cooperating with Cultural Heritage without Borders Albania, and the Department of Archaeology and Heritage Studies, University of Tirana. In focus for this were partly questions about how cultural heritage processes can be a resource for conflict resolution, and partly how heritage could be an asset for economic development – specifically in terms of revitalized crafts skills.

European landscape convention and questions related to cultural landscapes, vernacular building traditions as well as agriculturally based industrial production represents my major interests, illustrated also as representative for UGOT in UNISCAPE, and being active in European Ecocycles Society. Related to these questions is the JPI research project on Urban Garden, were the department forms a Swedish team together with the City of Göterborg, and the Region Västra Götaland.

I have a keen interest in the development of professional practices, which the CHARTER Alliance project is focused on, in which I am the ICOMOS lead research coordinator. I am as well the ICOMOS Sweden National representative to ICOMOS CIF (the committee on training).

I am vice chair for the foundation Cultural Heritage without Borders Sweden, and through this organisation I am a memebr of the Commission expert sub-group on safeguarding the cultural heritagte of Ukraine
