Conference on indoor air quality

10th Indoor Air Quality Conference:
Round Table on Standards and Guidelines

The IAQ International Scientific Committee and UCL Centre for
Sustainable Heritage have the pleasure to announce a Round Table
discussion on the topic of "Standards and guidelines: hindrance or
help?", led by Professor May Cassar, UCL Centre for Sustainable
Heritage.

The aim of this Roundtable is to explore the relationship of
heritage science with standards and guidelines.  How is the evidence
produced by heritage science contributing to the development of
standards and guidelines?  Are standards and guidelines of help, and
if so, how and to whom?  Are they of hindrance, and if so, how and
to whom? Are standards and guidelines the same, or do they have a
different purpose? The plethora of standards and guidelines in
recent years suggests that they have an important purpose.  The
Roundtable will explore these questions and others in relation to
the theme of this conference.

The Round Table will be organised on 20 June 2012 as part of the
programme of the 10th International Conference on Indoor Air Quality
in Heritage and Historic Environments at University College London,
Centre for Sustainable Heritage, London
