ELAICH presents at International Congress of Science and Cultural Heritage 2010

The ELAICH Consortium (educational linkage approach in cultural heritage) organized a Round Table session within the framework of the XXVI International Congress of Science and Cultural Heritage 2010 in Bressanone (Brixen), Italy held in July 2010.

During the round table, ELAICH partners presented the principles and merits of ELAICH to participants in the international conference, mainly a mix of cultural heritage scientists and other related stakeholders, such as representatives of a wide spectrum of conservation authorities.

The principles presented were well received by the audience and non-ELAICH participants, including Prof. Stefane Della Torre of the Politecnico of Milano and Arch. Renata Codello of the Superintendence of Venice, who is responsible for the management of archaeological assets in the District of Venice as part of the Ministry of Culture of Italy.
