Workshop 2

The workshop Advanced Materials in Cultural Heritage Protection adopts a multidisciplinary approach that integrates emerging technologies and their applications in the conservation and preservation of cultural heritage. It is organized by the 2DHeriPro project, funded by the Science Fund of the Republic of Serbia under the PRISMA program. The workshop objective is to bring together experts from diverse scientific fields to present their research on the condition and degradation of various artifacts, the necessity of conservation and restoration, potential challenges, and the application of novel materials and methods in conservation. The workshop also serves as a platform for the exchange of ideas and the fostering of collaborations on innovative approaches. As part of the program, a live demonstration will be held at the Faculty of Applied Arts, featuring analytical methodologies employed by scientists and conservators for the in situ study of historical artifacts. This demonstration will introduce participants to key tools and techniques for on-site analysis in archaeometry, conservation science, and cultural heritage preservation.
