Michel Chapuis – Picture Conf. Luxembourg 21/9/06 The starting point for FP7 Cultural Heritage Research in the Environment Programme The overarching objective is the Protection, Conservation and Restoration of Cultural Heritage, which requires a multiple integrated approach :  Focus on complex assemblies and not only on individual materials  Indivisibility among damage functions, assessment and monitoring for conservation  Importance of context in research on the moveable and immoveable heritage

Michel Chapuis – Picture Conf. Luxembourg 21/9/06 (initial proposal at 21/09/06 still to beconfirmed/amended ) FP7 first annual workprogramme related to protection, conservation and enhancement of cultural heritage) Damage assessment, diagnosis and monitoring for the preventive conservation and maintenance of the cultural heritage: complex assemblies and not on individual materials (Collaborative projects) Networking, knowledge transfer and optimisation of results in cultural heritage ; ERA-Net for the preservation of the tangible cultural heritage (Coordination and support Action) Consolidation and dissemination of results: large European conference in 2008 (Coordination and support Action)
