This short essay outlines some of the main dimensions of ecological thinking and explores the different ways in which heritage scholars might engage with ecological ideas and approaches from a critical perspective. The paper offers an overview of the emergence of ecology and ecologies across the sciences and the humanities, highlighting the need to consider such work alongside and in conjunction with Indigenous ecological approaches. Finally, the paper serves as a position statement for the Critical Heritage Ecologies initiative, which began in 2024 and is situated in the Amsterdam School for Heritage, Memory and Material Culture.
