Special event

A collective space for meaningful dialogue

Welcome to IE Open Space session - a participant-driven forum where both members and non-members come together to explore the questions that matter most to us. Whether your passion lies in advancing heritage interpretation practice or strengthening the way our membership organisation functions, this method invites you to step forward, voice your ideas, and collaborate with others who care just as deeply. 

Open Space thrives on the belief that the people who show up are the right people, the topics that emerge are the ones we are ready to tackle, and the outcomes depend on the collective energy we bring. Here, you are not just a participant but an active co-creator, free to move between discussions, propose themes, challenge assumptions, and shape practical results. Your curiosity, commitment, and willingness to engage are the driving forces behind what we discover - and the impact we create together. 
Make sure to sign up for the forum that will take place 3 hours in Faro in Portugal on 16 April 2026 at 14:00.

Our General Assembly will be digital this year and takes place in May.
