Disaster risk preparedness and management in cultural heritage sites

The event will show local stakeholders how an integrated approach is necessary for a good management of World Heritage sites, including the too often neglected risk dimension. An accomplished and inedited report, focused of first level of microzonation, conducted by a multidisciplinary team composed by Italian (CNR-IGAG) and Albanian researchers (Prof. I. Pojani, Prof. L. Duni) will be presented to the public during the conference.

The conference will also offer the opportunity to award trainees, upon public presentation of their work, with the certificate for their attendance to the training held last year in November in Berat. The training was based on the newly published newly issued Resource Manual for “Managing Disaster Risks for World Heritage”.The conference will also offer the opportunity to award trainees, upon public presentation of their work, with the certificate for their attendance to the training held last year in November in Berat.
