We are delighted to announce the return of the RICS Global Building Conservation Conference, an event that will be invaluable for all professionals operating within the built conservation landscape. This year, the conference looks to the future, showcasing the best efforts to preserve and enhance global heritage sites to safeguard their integrity and utility for future generations.
The agenda will address some of the ways in which both man-made and natural disasters are impacting the legacy of these heritage sites, examining the innovative techniques that conservationists use to respond to their region-specific challenges. These insights will be delivered through sessions that include an examination of climate change and climate protection, post-conflict building restoration, and the opportunities and challenges created by repurposing buildings after a period of disuse.
Hear our global experts bring these and other examples of cutting-edge practice to life, illustrating the challenges they have faced, the lessons they’ve learned and the remarkable achievements they have made in building conservation. Enrich your own practice with this opportunity for knowledge exchange within the specialty, and come away informed by a breadth of case studies involving different regions and materials.
