IN2PAST – Associate Laboratory for Research and Innovation in Heritage, Arts, Sustainability and Territory, is a consortium of seven research units: Centre for the Study of the Sociology and Aesthetics of Music (CESEM), Centre for Art History and Artistic Research (CHAIA), Centre for Research in Anthropology (CRIA), Institute of Art History (IHA), Institute of Contemporary History (IHC), HERCULES Laboratory – Cultural Heritage Studies and Safeguard, and the Landscapes, Heritage and Territory Laboratory (Lab2PT).
