Event description: 

Sustainable development—the concept of meeting the world’s current needs without compromising the ability of future generations to do the same—is of growing importance in times of rapid social transformations, global climate change, and economic uncertainty. Led by Lukasz Bratasz, Head of the Institute for the Preservation of Cultural Heritage (IPCH) Sustainable Conservation Lab, this workshop will address important challenges on the way towards sustainable conservation, in all three dimensions of sustainability: economic, ecologic, and social. The workshop will investigate questions about universities as agents of sustainable conservation; planning for uncertainty, and decision making frameworks and assessment.
