Twenty-seven participants from 22 countries across Africa, Asia, Europe, and the Middle East have embarked on the online phase of the International Training Course on Post-Crisis Recovery of Cultural Heritage. The course kicked off on 2 October 2024, with a virtual session focused on value assessment in the context of post-crisis cultural heritage recovery. Dr. Rohit Jigyasu and Dr. Elena Isayev delivered insightful lectures, followed by a collaborative group assignment, where participants applied the session's topic to case studies they shared.
The upcoming online and in-person workshop sessions will explore essential topics, including situation and context analysis, damage and risk assessment, documentation, tools for recovery and resilience, and recovery planning and implementation. Led by international experts, these sessions, bring together expertise to address the growing challenges that cultural heritage faces due to conflicts and natural disasters.
This course, a collaboration between ICCROM and the Fondazione Santagata for the Economics of Culture, receives generous support from the ALIPH Foundation and Kimia S.p.A. It continues ICCROM's longstanding commitment to providing vital capacity-building and training for post-crisis recovery of cultural heritage.
