Training the Trainers: Facilitation Skills Workshops for leaders in Conservation Risk Assessment – PART 1
Five ICOM International Committees including ICOM-CC, DRMC, ICTOP, ICMS & INTERCOM collaborated on an ICOM Solidarity Project, responding to the challenges museums face. Participants learnt that a facilitator brings together the focus of a diverse group of individuals with complex needs towards a common shared objective or goal. The aim of this project was to harness existing experience, knowledge and practice in the advocacy, teaching and implementation of Conservation Risk Assessment (CRA) to museum communities as a tool and practice for sustainable recovery and resilience. CRA is an analytical and methodological tool used for identification, evaluation and mitigation of risks posed by the 10 agents of deterioration. These two linked sessions will highlight successful outcomes of this training through presentations and discussions. New security technology is not just useful for preventing and detecting crime but adds real benefits for the whole museum.

Expert Session: Resilience of Historic House Museums and their Collections to Risks posed by Climate Change, Environmental Disasters, and Conflict Zones
The expert session will address risks to historic buildings and their collections by focussing on preventive conservation issues and the steps needed before, during and after disaster response. What resources should be allocated to mitigate risks to the built structure? How can museums develop risk management plans with community involvement? How should a museum prioritize collection items to be saved in case of emergency and how should they allocate resources for this purpose?

New security technology is not just useful for preventing and detecting crime but adds real benefits for the whole museum
Security cameras and alarms are expensive and can sometimes be seen as taking money away from other more important museum projects! But what if our security equipment could do more than simply protect our objects from theft. This session will look at case studies where security technology has been used to enhance the information available to other departments driving both operational efficiency and enhancing the experience for our visitors. The session will also look at precautions necessary to protect individuals’ rights and ensure the security of our data.
