Thematic areas

1. HERITAGE LAW AND MANAGEMENT
In matters of heritage, the actions undertaken by international Organizations depend on legal, economic, administrative and scientific considerations, all of which vary from one situation to the next. In such a context, hoe is it possible to link heritage professionals with Universities, and to reconcile conservation with public acess to the sites?

2. NETWORKING THE UNIVERSITY RESOURCES
In order to be integrated into the field of heritage management, university resources need to be acessible and readily shared by the Institutions, concerned. Can this be achieved through networking and computerizing university-produced material, and how will such a tool encourage exchanges between professors, students and profesionals?

3. TOWARS SYNERGY AND COOPERATION
Both theoretically and in practice, heritage is still largely an experimental field, in which participants need to be committed to common goals. Can the creation of integrated networks produce a new ethic based on increased or renewed cooperation?

4. HERITAGE AT STAKE: STRATEGIES AND PRIORITIES
Throughout the Global Village as we know it now, heritage preservation is possible only if the existing resources are shared worldwide. What strategies and which priorities will allow the international community to rise to the challenge?

5. INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION PROJECTS
Successful heritage projects, whether in research or in field work, rely on efficient international netorking. what international projects are currently underway? Case studies

6. YOUTH AND HERITAGE DAY
The entire day is devoted to calling on the young people, as a taskforce, to address the problem of ethics in the field of heritage and work towards developping a code. In the afternoon, an International heritage Project marketplace will be opened for the studens.
