ICCROM-UNESCO Course
The biennial ICCROM-UNESCO Intertnational Stone Conservation Course has been held in Venice since 1976 with the specific intention of making available to the rest of the world the experience and research developed in the city after 1966. Directed at mid-career professionals in the field of conservation of historic stone material the course responds to the continuous worldwide request for specialised training in the field (over 300 professionals from 74 countries have participated). Venice in Peril has consistently supported the Course with financial contributions to its administrative budget, and is represented on its Board of Directors.
