How has crisis changed the way in which local communities experienced Cultural Heritage? When and how can new technologies be used as a tool for fruition? Which case studies demonstrate the use of Cultural Heritage as a resource to cope with the crisis? These are a few of the many questions about the connection between crisis and Cultural Heritage that have been raised and investigated, during the second edition of the CHAIN (Cultural Heritage Academic Interdisciplinary Network) Conference, and that were edited by the CHAIN team 2022 in this volume. The papers published here are arranged according to three thematic sessions - evidence, use and resource - that elaborate on how Heritage goes through the crisis and despite it continues to maintain its status as testimony and resource. Also, this explore the ways in which Cultural heritage renews its forms of fruition, responding tenaciously to the changing times, but also to the habits and customs of increasingly distant and apparently disinterested territorial communities.
