The workshop is open to those professionally involved in climate change and natural heritage matters - leading scientists, government officials and experienced users in the challenging field of predicting, modelling and proposing mitigation and adaptation strategies on the impact of climate change on cultural heritage.

The workshop provides the opportunity to debate the effects of changing climate parameters on material and structural characteristics of cultural heritage among scientists, end users and policy makers. It also aims at producing guidelines to governments, other institutional actors, NGO’s and experts on how to better integrate climate change issues and prevision in protection and maintenance of cultural heritage.
