INTO Webinars in 2024
Welcome to our new series of webinars! This series is themed around newly released chapters of the National Trust’s climate adaptation guidance, which are aimed at helping heritage organisations worldwide care for their important sites and collections in the face of ever-increasing climate-related challenges. These sessions will cover gardens, buildings and collections, and will be delivered by National Trust experts alongside members of the wider INTO network.
Next in the series:
- ‘Climate change adaptation in historic buildings’
- Wednesday 22 May, 1-2pm BST – register here
Alan Gardner, senior buildings conservation manager at the National Trust, will present new guidance on maintaining and adapting historic building fabric in the context of climate change.
We’ll then hear from Hoshil Dhanji of Zanzibar Stone Town Heritage Society, about the adaptation work he and his team have been doing at the Old Customs House in Stone Town as part of the ‘Withstanding Change’ project. This session is a must for anyone interested in practical approaches to adaptation in historic buildings.
