ABOUT
OUR MAIN OBJECTIVES:
DISSEMINATE INSTITUTIONAL AND PRIVATE CONSERVATION RESEARCH
CONTRIBUTE TO THE PERMANENT EDUCATION OF CONSERVATORS
HELP CONSERVATORS EXTEND THEIR PROFESSIONAL NETWORKS
SHAKE in Conservation was founded in 2017 as a result of the interaction between conservators active in the private and public sectors, PhD research or education, ranging in fields from archaeology to contemporary art. SHAKE in Conservation is a non-profit organisation based in Belgium. English was chosen as the main language to bridge the gap between Dutch and French native speakers.
Our activities target all students and professionals involved in Heritage and its conservation.
We aim to create connection at different levels: interdisciplinary, inter-academic, intergenerational, intercommunity.
