- 6/20/2012) 
International Meeting organised by: YOCOCU Place: Antwerp, BE
Address: University of Antwerp, Hof van Liere Prinsstraat 13 2000 Antwerpen, BE
YOCOCU (YOuth in COnservation of CUltural heritage) was born in
2008 with the aim to realize a network among young professionals
and researchers, working in different fields of Cultural Heritage:
chemistry, physics, biology, restoration, archaeology,
architecture.
In YOCOCU young professionals, students and researchers are called
to increase and strengthen their consciousness to be the main
actors of the present and future society and the power for the
development of new knowledge. This is the reason of YOCOCU: all
work together for our collective interest and show this work in a
unique, free and open to all meeting. The past two editions have
made YOCOCU a network for interdisciplinary and international
collaborations.
As for the past editions, YOCOCU focuses on the possibility to give
voice to young professionals in order to share experiences, studies
and new researches and to develop the policy and strategy to play
an active role in the cultural heritage conservation field. This
edition intends to foster a strong exchange among participants, so
to realize a community that share information, ideas, projects and
promote itself and the cultural heritage field, too.
