Description: The event explores the impact of climate change on cultural heritage conservation, with a focus on how environmental variability affects biological growth, particularly vegetation, in both exposed and confined areas like catacombs. It addresses the challenges posed by these conditions and the limitations of using biocides in poorly ventilated spaces. The day brings together scientific researchers and conservation professionals to share practical experiences and assess the effectiveness and sustainability of treatment products. The goal is to develop strategies to reduce intervention cycles and improve risk assessment for heritage sites. Participation is free, subscription is mandatory.
