Resumen
The international conference FORTMED, conceived as a space for encounter and exchange among different disciplines and research traditions, offering a qualified forum for discussion on issues related to the knowledge, conservation, and enhancement of fortifications. In a context marked by profound social, environmental, and technological transformations, the conference aims to contribute to the construction of a shared culture of fortified heritage, grounded in a critical awareness of its historical, architectural, and landscape values, as well as of its role in the present. The conference, is structured around seven thematic areas, designed to cover the full spectrum of research and practice in the field of fortified heritage: Historical and Documentary, Theoretical Concepts, Research on Built Heritage, Characterization of Geomaterials; Digital Heritage, Culture and Management of Cultural Heritage, Miscellaneous. Within this perspective, FORTMED 2026 is conceived not only as a moment for presenting the state of the art in research, but also as an opportunity to envision future scenarios, promoting a vision of fortified heritage founded on critical knowledge, design responsibility, and an awareness of the equal and relational value of all its components.
