Given the success of the first edition, the second edition of the Young Professional Forum, promoted by Centro di Conservazione e Restauro “La Venaria Reale”, will take place on 1-2 July 2021.
The Covid-19 emergency that we are experiencing has disrupted our plans at first, but we are even more convinced of how important this space offered to the younger generations is. The pandemic has offered us not only obstacles but also opportunities to think differently, to think big. That’s why this time we have planned new initiatives and in-depth studies related to the Forum in order to enlarge our Community and together build a common vision.
The Young Professionals Forum is an opportunity to reflect on the changes developed during the state of emergency, new needs and new operational contexts. We have witnessed the emergence of new procedures, new tools have been introduced and new skills have emerged.
All this and much more can be discussed together during the Sessions of the Young Professionals Forum.
The 2021 event will consist of two days of presentations, moments of exchange, debates and networking, during which young professionals will have the chance to share and present their activities and researches, meeting established professionals, professors and researchers who will be involved in the different work sessions.
Update: IIC – International Institute for Conservation will be sponsoring 10 free places for students and early career conservators, including IIC members.
