Thursday 20th to Saturday 22nd June 2013
Carlisle

The IHBC’s 2013 Annual School examines critical challenges for built and historic environment conservation specialists and placemakers in the 21st century: what are the skills we need to ensure that our heritage is viable and sustainable, and how do we cultivate and manage those skills?

The IHBC’s 2013 School will provide delegates from all specialist backgrounds and disciplines with a huge range of opportunities to scrutinise the latest thinking on skills resources, priorities and opportunities. Discussions will range across practice, policy, funding, community education, low-carbon priorities and traditional skills as well as the tools of the mainstream construction sector such as contracts and design review.  All of these areas represent strong drivers in conservation skills as well as for conservation itself.
