“Assessing
the value of tangible cultural heritage”
The First HERITY International Conference on Quality in Cultural
Heritage
Management: models and methods of classification. The HERITY proposal
was held in December 2006 to point out the state-of-the-art of existing
classifications for Monuments, Museums, Archaeological sites, Libraries
and Archives. Conclusions were reached thanks to UNESCO-WHC, UN-WTO,
ICCROM, HERITY and published at their Web sites as well as in the
Proceedings of the Conference, which will be released before the
next Conference will take place.
Further editions are thought to be dedicated time by time to one
of the four
Criteria adopted in the HERITY 'target' which is used to illustrate
the classification obtained as a result of the HGES (Herity Global
Evaluation System) certification. They are: Value, Conservation,
Communication, Services. The Second HERITY International Conference
(December 3-5, 2008 in Rome) will focus on Value.
Conference purposes are:
1) To make possible to exchange ideas and experiences at an international
level on the aims, possibility to measure, and the ways to describe
the concept of Value related to material Cultural Heritage open
to the public (Monuments, Museums, Archaeological sites, Libraries
and Archives) from different points of view;
2) To present in detail the HERITY approach to the criterion Value
when
performing the quality evaluation.
You can attend the HERITY International Conference on invitation
