Julia Boechat Machado (ISHA Vienna)
Hi everyone, my name is Julia, and I’m currently working on my PhD in Comparative History at Central European University, Vienna. I have also studied in Brazil, my home country, (History BA, 2018), Bologna, Italy (Global Cultures MA, 2020), and Belarus (intensive Russian language courses, 2021). I am interested in cultural history, especially in what concerns the Soviet Union. I am also passionate about literature, and I am currently attempting to read a book from every country in the world. I joined ISHA in 2020, when I attended my first conference, in Zagreb, became a member of Carnival’s Editorial Board in 2022, and I was one of the organizers of the 2023 conference in Vienna. Now I’m also serving as Webmaster and council member, and hope to help ISHA leave all the covid issues behind, and be able to focus on growth again.

Charlotte Rottiers (ISHA Ghent)
I’m Charlotte Rottiers and I’m currently working as a PhD researcher at the KU Leuven’s Faculty of Architecture. I obtained my Master degree in Art History at the University of Ghent in 2018. Afterwards, I followed a Bachelor in Eastern European Languages and Cultures and a Master in Urbanism and Spatial Planning. My interests lie in architectural history, cultural and political representation combined with the formation of identity through art and architecture. My current research investigates the role attributed to architecture and art in the deployment of the Belgian diplomatic network from the moment of its foundation until the outbreak of World War II. I’m treasurer at ISHA Ghent and I was active as a council member in ISHA International in the term of 2020. After organising the 31st Annual Conference in Ghent (September 2020), I thought it was time for a new challenge. As Editor in Chief, I’m looking forward to gaining a lot of new experiences and contributing to ISHA’s academic standard. I’m honoured to work together with the amazing people in the Editorial Board.
