Figures & Pictures

Last 18 April, on International Day on Monuments and Sites, we celebrated Heritage for generations.

The Emerging Professionals Working Group coordinated the event in a spirit of intergenerational exchanges to safeguard and promote heritage. Activities were aimed at fostering fruitful intergenerational dialogue. These included, but were not limited to: conferences, training sessions, roundtables, poster campaigns, evenings with question and answer games between younger and older members professionals and non-professionals, interactive tours of heritage and other kind of sites.

6 months after D-day, we can say that the results are positive: there were 117 events in 50 countries.

ICIP (the ICOMOS International Scientific Committee on Interpretation and Presentation) very much looks forward to welcoming participants to the 2018 conference: ‘Critical issues in Heritage Interpretation and Sustainable Tourism’, taking place in Florence, 23-25 October 2018.

However, please note as a matter of importance that, as of today, this conference is now managed solely by the International Council on Monuments and Sites (ICOMOS), which is the parent organisation of ICIP.

We are pleased to introduce you to the new Presidents of National Committees and International Scientific Commitees elected to date in 2018.
