Description*

The official Youtube channel of the International Centre for the Study of the Preservation and Restoration of Cultural Property (ICCROM) features a wide array of webinars, lecture series and group discussions focussed on the protection of cultural heritage worldwide.

ICCROM is an intergovernmental organization created in the aftermath of the Second World War in response to widespread destruction and the urgent need to reconstruct cultural property. Over the years, ICCROM has followed an interdisciplinary approach to conservation by engaging the expertise of scientists, conservators, restorers, archaeologists, art historians, curators, architects, engineers and city planners. Regular courses and workshops have expanded in focus, now including topics such as conservation of museums, historic structures in stone, brick, wood or earthen architecture, archaeological sites, historic urban areas and cultural landscapes.

Featured playlists include:

  • Heritage conservation learning in the COVID world: Challenges and opportunities
  • Heritage and resilience: Building a symbiotic relationship
  • Science in conservation practice
