COPAM’s annual heritage symposium was a resounding success, bringing together leading experts, researchers, and enthusiasts from across the Mediterranean. The symposium provided a platform for sharing knowledge, discussing challenges, and exploring innovative solutions for heritage preservation. Attendees engaged in lively discussions and collaborative workshops.
This year’s symposium focused on the theme of ‘Adapting Heritage Preservation to Climate Change.’ Speakers presented cutting-edge research on the impacts of climate change on cultural heritage sites. They also shared strategies for mitigating these impacts and building resilience. The symposium highlighted the urgent need for proactive measures to protect our shared heritage from the effects of climate change.
The symposium concluded with a call to action, urging participants to collaborate on developing and implementing sustainable preservation strategies. COPAM is committed to continuing this important dialogue and working with partners to protect the Mediterranean’s invaluable cultural heritage. We look forward to hosting next year’s symposium and continuing to advance the field of heritage preservation.
