Lecture by Agnes Brokerhof about the application of risk management
in the cultural heritage field. She will discuss how heritage
organisations can use this to prioritise their limited resources and
reduce the risks that have the greatest impact on collections
preservation.

Risk assessment exercise where participants will have an opportunity
to apply the principles of risk management in practice and discuss
issues in collections care such as strategic planning and
prioritisation.

Lecture by Dr Anna Bulow discussing a model used to measure
cost-effectiveness in health care and its potential to inform
decisions in collection management. This will be followed by
discussion about cost-effective resource allocation.
