ISPRA – tIstituto Superiore per la Protezione e la Ricerca Ambientale – through its Department for Environmental Monitoring, Protection and Biodiversity Conservation, is organising an event to be held in Taormina on 1 and 2 October, entitled “SD-WISHEES SEMINAR ON BEST PRACTICES: Innovative solutions and best practices to protect cultural and environmental heritage assets from increasingly frequent hydro-climatic extreme events”.

The event aims to provide an opportunity to share and exchange best practices within the context of the Water-Climate-Cultural Heritage Nexus, contributing to the sustainable, collaborative and inclusive management of cultural and environmental heritage threatened by extreme hydro-climatic events.

Specifically, on 1 October, a workshop aimed at a national audience will take place, entitled: “Innovative solutions and best practices within the context of the WATER-CLIMATE-CULTURAL HERITAGE NEXUS: A study day to support hydro-meteorological and marine monitoring and forecasting, as well as the monitoring and forecasting of extreme hydro-climatic events and their impact on the environment and cultural heritage in the context of climate change”.

The second day, aimed at an international audience, will be devoted to the presentation, discussion and finalisation of the best practices identified as part of the SD-WISHEES project, with the aim of contributing to the development of research and innovation activities in the Water-Climate-Cultural Heritage Nexus sector.
