Call for Papers - ENCoRE Conference : Education and Research in Conservation-Restoration - Cambridge UK, 14-15 April 2016 - Deadline 27 Feb 2016
ENCoRE, the European Network for Conservation-Restoration Education, was officially constituted in 1998. Its aim is to promote research and education in the field of conservation-restoration of cultural heritage (ENCoRE Statutes – Section 2). Developing education for conservator-restorers being one of main goals of ENCoRE, the Board decided to organize a one day international conference dedicated to Education and Research in Conservation-Restoration, prior to the 11th General Assembly of ENCoRE 14-15 April 2016 in Cambridge (UK). Both meetings will be hosted by the Hamilton Kerr Institute, Cambridge. The conference will be supported by the digital C-R periodical CeROArt. Please remember that ENCoRE offers stipends for students from your program to attend the meetings!
In connection with the ENCoRE Conference on “Education and Research in Conservation-Restoration” – 13. April 2016 in Cambridge, UK, the Board of ENCoRE cordially invites students to present a poster on their research project. Submissions are restricted to students who are currently studying conservation-restoration at Masters (or 4th year Bachelors) level, at any European Higher Education (University level) Institution that is a member of ENCoRE.
The aim is to present ongoing students’ projects, in order to demonstrate the huge variety of research and treatments undertaken by current students of the ENCoRE member institutions.
Consideration will be given to posters that demonstrate both the highest quality of student research and/or practical treatments, and the learning outcomes achieved by European conservation-restoration education programmes.
A maximum of 3 posters per member institution can be submitted. The selection of these proposals as well as their ranking will have to be made by the teaching staff of the ENCoRE member institution, who has to submit them to ENCoRE at conference@encore-edu.org
Depending on the number of submissions from member institutions and the space available, the board of ENCoRE will make the final selection (at least 1 poster per school) for posters to be presented at the conference.
All posters selected by their Institution will be published in the ENCoRE / CeROArt postprints of the conference, after the approval of the review committee.
Further prerequisites:
The posters must be written in English.
Abstracts must be submitted before 15. February 2016, with a limit of 500 words.
Posters should measure 100 x 70 cm and should not be mounted.
Printing and delivery will be the responsibility of the author(s)
Submission of posters deadline: 27 February 2015
