Description: MARINA Project organizes the workshop “Restoration and conservation of coastal and submerged heritage using solutions based on nanotechnologies“, with a view to co-constructing a common understanding of concerns and barriers on the adoption of RRI approach in the context of shared nanotech-marine R&D and policies. With several coastal zones being among the densest populated areas, mixed metropolitan coastal landscapes have emerged around historic port cities posing new challenges for conservation, management and transmission of existing tangible and intangible values. The nanotechnologies constitute a great promise for facing these challenges in the domain of environmental conservation, giving that, it was found important analysing the links of nanotechnology to the marine environment through cultural heritage. The workshop is addressed to explore potential synergies between MARINA and the domain of nanotechnologies, amongst the most relevant H2020 enabling technologies. This “bridge” will define the transferability of the MARINA results in the nanotechnologies on one hand, and enrich the knowledge base of MARINA with valuable insights. We will create added value through a collaborative debate by using participatory and interactive methods, among different subjects, organisations and initiatives invited. Based on a 3 triggering questions, we will use them as interaction start-up enabling the discussion of potential solutions and methods bounding the 3 different stages of heritage governance: restoration, fruition, conservation. Why participate – The main result will be the definition of a path towards the exploitation of methodologies and policies helping the local communities, local and national stakeholders and policymakers to remove barriers limiting the adoption of RRI. The participants will co-construct a common understanding of concerns and barriers on the adoption of RRI approach in the context of shared nanotech-marine R&D and policies; this will be a RRI-valuable result. Additionally, this workshop will help to evaluate the interest of the Nanotech and Heritage-related communities in inheriting the MARINA-RRI knowledge base and update it also by methods developed and services offered by MARINA-RRI partners.
Restoration and conservation of coastal and submerged heritage using solutions based on nanotechnologies.
Description:
The workshop “Restoration and conservation of coastal and submerged heritage using solutions based on
nanotechnologies”, held the 24th October 2017 in Bruxelles, had the mission to start the analysis of the
potential connections between marine RRI knowledge and nanotechnologies for cultural heritage. The main
scope was to build a view to co-constructing a common understanding of concerns and barriers on the
adoption of RRI approach in the context of shared nanotech-marine R&D and policies.
This “bridge” defines the transferability of the MARINA results in the nanotechnologies, amongst the most
relevant H2020 enabling technologies, on one hand, and enrich the knowledge base of MARINA and the
other participating projects with valuable insights.
15 people joined the discussion, their composition being: 7 representatives of R&D Centres, 3
representatives of policy making bodies, 3 representatives of industry domain, 1 representatives of Local
Administrations, 1 Association of stakeholders, complying with the value chain of marine cultural heritage
restoration, conservation and fruition.
The discussion was preliminarily focused on the commonalities and shareable results of 3 projects:
MARINA, Nano2All (aiming to put the responsible research at the core of its methodology to create a
climate of dialogue and engagement within the application of nanotechnologies to the brain-computer
interfaces, smart textile and nanomedicine) and Heracles (aiming to design, validate and promote
responsive systems/solutions for effective resilience of CH against climate change effects).
The workshop was driven towards the evaluation of the interest of the Nanotech and Heritage-related
communities in inheriting the MARINA-RRI knowledge base and update it also by methods developed and
services offered by MARINA-RRI partners. At this aim, the Association of Cities and Regions for Sustainable
Resource Management provided interesting insights about the potential deployment of projects’ offered
solutions and methods.
Finally, a collaborative debate was started by a triggering question “to which extent shall
nanotechnologies’ use be discussed among stakeholders’ categories (Research, Public Administrations,
Associations, NGOs, Citizens)”? It has been used as interaction start-up enabling the discussion of potential
solutions and methods bounding the 3 different stages of heritage governance: restoration, fruition,
conservation, paving the way for the exploitation of results among different projects and between projects
and the stakeholders’ network.
