ISCEAH 3 Year Plan, 2018-2020

The purpose of a Triennial Plan is to assist in the development and implementation of an overall Scientific Development Strategy for ICOMOS. ICOMOS’s Scientific Council has set up a scientific program of interdisciplinary themes seeking collaboration from all ISCs. Within that framework, ISCEAH’s program can contribute through training, field projects, organization of conferences and seminars, publications, research, websites, methods for response to requests for assistance, etc. The development of a road map to establish future guidelines and principles for the conservation and management of earthen architectural, archaeological and cultural- landscape heritage is also an area of activity for ISCEAH to contribute to ICOMOS’s overall programs.
