She convinced the international jury panel with her research project on “Governing dissonant heritage – promises and realities of existing cultural policy tools”: “This research proposal is not only extremely relevant for heritage policy, but it will also serve to help Europeans better understand heritage in Southeast Europe and support and foster dialogue among many actors and communities,” said the CPRA Jury President, Lluís Bonet (University of Barcelona, Spain).
