The starting point for CH The starting point for CH Research in FP7Research in FP7

More than in the past, a multiple integrated approach:

– Focus more on complex assemblies and not only on individual materials

– Integration of damage functions, assessment and monitoring for preservation

– Importance of context in research on the preservation of movable and immovable heritage

Challenges and trends for Challenges and trends for European researchEuropean research

• Making better use of Europe’s public R&D funds through co-ordination and co-operation between EC funded research programmes and national research programmes: ERA-NET, Joint Programming (JP), as well as initiatives from the private sector European Technology Platforms (ETP) and PPPs.

• For JPIs and ETPs/PPPs developing a vision for a specific research area defining a strategic research agenda (SRA) and

SMART (specific, measurable, achievable, realistic time-based) objectives

Preparing for implementation of SRA (option analysis and impact assessment, planning)

ERA-NET ERA-NET ““NET-HERITAGE”

NET-HERITAGE is a partnership of 15 ministries, funding agencies and national RTD authorities from 14 European countries. It is the first significant initiative to coordinate national RTD programmes of European countries and support European RTD Programmes for research applied to the protection of tangible cultural heritage.

JPIJPI “Cultural Heritage and Global “Cultural Heritage and Global Change: a new challenge for Change: a new challenge for Europe”Europe”

This JPI is expected to overcome fragmentation and overlapping of research of Member States in the field of cultural heritage research, to maximise and exploit at best their research efforts.It should address major societal challenges enabling the sector to tackle global problems such as climate change and sustainability. JPI = structured process (not an instrument), commitment from Member States neededCoordinator : Italian Ministry of Culture (MIBAC) with Network of European Member States (14 , number increasing) Common SRA for medium to long-term research needs in the area of preservation and use of cultural heritage Organisation of joint work and joint calls in coordination with the European Commission“Green light” for preparation given by EU Council to MS on 3/12/09; European Commission Recommendation on 26/04/10; Welcome progress made by EU Council to MS on 26/05/10 ; series of meetings organised by Coordinator to settle the JPI (Governing Board, Executive Board..)all over 2010 and so far in 2011 (“CSA” in support under negotiation)

including Focus Area on Cultural Heritageincluding Focus Area on Cultural Heritage

• ECTP gathers important private and public stakeholders in the field of construction at European level ; also about 30 National TPs

• The Focus Area on Cultural Heritage (FACH) mostly for immovable Cultural heritage but “driver” for the movable C.H., includes 6 “vertical” and 6 “horizontal” WGs. Vertical WGs: Diagnosis & assessment, materials, intervention techniques,

environment & energy management, exploitation and maintenance, cities and territorial aspects;

Horizontal WGs: Education & training, preservation of art works, technical standards, socio-economic aspects, disaster prevention, communication

• The overall “umbrella” ECTP - FACH has set-up a “Strategic Research Agenda” also leading to Implementation Plan” setting priorities to be addressed during FP7 (active role of proposition of topics to EC)

E2B European Initiative• The objective of E2B European Initiative is to deliver,

implement and optimise building and district concepts that have the technical, economic and societal potential to drastically decrease the energy consumption and reduce CO2 emissions due to existing and new buildings at the overall scale of the European Union.

• The E2B European Initiative will speed up research on key technologies and develop a competitive industry in the fields of energy efficient construction processes, products and services, with the main purpose of reaching the goals set forth for 2020 and 2050 to address climate change issues and contribute to improve EU energy independence thereby transforming these challenges into a business opportunity.

Reflection on new strategic Reflection on new strategic issuesissues

• Avoid fragmentation and obtain concrete innovative results

• Bridge knowledge gap and facilitate transfer and exploitation of research results

• Cross-cutting approach between research and EU policies on particular themes like climate change, sustainability, energy, etc.

• Enhance coherence and complementarity of EU policies for research and innovation for more efficiency at EU, National and Regional levels

Indicative gaps, challenges and emerging issues for CH

Protection of submerged cultural heritage including maritime, archaeological & coastal heritage (technologies and tools may be also applicable to lakes, marshes, rivers...) proposed for 2012

• Integration of CH in urban setting through refurbishment / renovation especially regarding energy efficiency at « district/quartier » level ( see EeB multiannual roadmap, proposed for 2012)

• Protection of cultural landscapes and archaeological sites with special focus on preventive archaeology

• Dissemination of knowledge, training activities, exploitation of results (more EC projects to participate in existing fairs in C.H.: eg Valladolid AR&PA Innovation, Ferrara, Leipzig…); also possible event in Cyprus ?

• Strengthening involvement of stakeholders & end-users including especially SMEs

Building an Innovation Union: from « blue sky » to market

New strategic approach by “Turning ideas into jobs, green growth and social progress” Target: R&D investment towards 3% of GDP according to Europe 2020 strategy; tackling weaknesses due to under-investment, fragmentation and lack of framework conditions by improving innovation capacities through:

European Innovation Partnerships European Research Area framework Streamlined EU programmes ( simplification) New financial and legal instruments (EIB and Risk Sharing Finance

Facility, EU patent) Reform of standardisation system Public procurement of innovation European Social Innovation pilot (use of ESF, virtual hub for social

entrepreneurs Stronger monitoring (Innovation Union Scoreboard)

All stakeholders –EU Council, EP and related EU Institutions National,Regional , Industry including SMEs, and other stakeholders are currently consulted to support the Innovation Union at: “http://ec.europa.eu/research/innovation-union/index_en.cfm”

CONCLUSIONCONCLUSION• More complementarity & coordination

at European level, national, and regional level (JPI) with other EU research programmes and sub-activities

and linked initiatives (ECTP/FACH, EeB PPP initiative and operational EU programmes: Education and Culture,

Regional policy, External relations (Europe-Aid, Euromed etc..)

With other European organisations-eg Council of Europe-.., NGOs (e.g. Europa Nostra)

• Foster the international dimension

MPC countries, Latin America, China, Japan, India, US etc.

with worldwide organisations/agencies UNESCO, ICCROM, ICOM, ICOMOS and Associations
