# Event Details

- **Event Name**: RUINED: A Heritage of War from UNESCO to NATO
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 22 Nov, 2025 at 03:00 pm
- **Event Description**: How did global heritage become the new battlespace for 21st-century warfare? Nations and non-state actors alike increasingly use the ruins of the past to leverage legal, political, and territorial advantage. This talk examines the roles of two intersecting international organizations that seek to combat the fallout from ruin warfare and their respective aspirations for mission success. The first, UNESCO, established after the Second World War and dedicated to world peace through culture and co-operation, has inherited a ruinous legacy of war and destruction. The other is NATO, a Cold War military alliance that must now confront cultural heritage in both its protective and punitive missions. Within the international order, along a spectrum of peace and war, both are struggling to contain the conflictual status of cultural heritage. Heritage assets, once positioned as global goods throughout the 20th century, are being transformed into the weapons of war in the 21st. Charting these developments, Dr. Lynn Meskell asks: how have the celebrated sites of humanity’s collective past been instrumentalized into a new future of risk and ruin?
