Welcome

Since 2005 ICCROM, CCI and RCE (formerly ICN) have worked on developing and disseminating the risk management approach for cultural heritage and have organized six joint courses. The most recent course included, for the first time, a substantial distance-learning component to enable participants to apply the risk management approach in their own working and cultural context. The method and tools that have been developed for the course proved to be applicable for all types of heritage, ranging from single wall painting and large collections to historic buildings and archaeological sites.

At the end of this year the successful cooperation will be concluded with a meeting in which the experiences and gained knowledge from all these years will be shared among former course participants and with anyone else interested in risk management.

Aim of the meeting and Program

The aim of the meeting is to synthesize and share knowledge and experience with former participants of the ICCROM-CCI-RCE international courses and exchange it with others who are interested in risk management. The meeting aims to consolidate and expand the risk network and explore new directions for the future. The three-day program will contain presentations, discussions, and social activities. The program will be made available by summer.
