This one day seminar will explore the risk-based approach to

Agnes Brokerhof will discuss the application of risk management in
the cultural heritage field and how heritage organisations can use
it to set priorities and efficiently allocate limited resources to
reduce risks for collections preservation.  Andor Vince will present
a case study in managing risks to collections applying the
methodology developed by the Canadian Conservation Institute (CCI)
and the Cultural Heritage Agency for the Netherlands (RCE).  Dr Anna
Bulow will present her experiences with application on risk
management in complex organisations.

Throughout the day participants will take part in a risk assessment
exercise and will have an opportunity to discuss issues in
collections care such as strategic planning, prioritisation and
cost-effective resource allocation.
