Summary:

The deadline for the submission of abstracts is 21 April 2008

The main objective of 8th EC conference on cultural heritage is to foster (the) exploitation and spin off of EU research results. New technologies, tools and devices will be presented through talks, posters, exhibitions and practical workshops. Interdisciplinary discussions among scientists, policy makers and end-users – e.g. conservators and restorers, managers and owners of the cultural patrimony- will aim at identification of future needs and development of funding strategies. Special attention will be devoted to pooling of expertise of key players in the field, such as ICOM-CC, ICOMOS, ICCROM, ECTP-FACH, EUROPA NOSTRA, UNESCO and others.

The aim of the final Conference is to present the state-of-the-art in the field of the four defined thematic groups:

- Recent progress in cultural heritage research
- Knowledge and technology transfer, from research to industry and SMEs
- Education and training, communication
- Policies, legislation, standardisation, and sustainability strategies in cultural heritage.
