This document aims to identify and disseminate effective practices of creating and communicating digital content that have proven to be particularly successful.

The research focused on identifying existing best practices and innovative approaches while simultaneously addressing the challenges associated with the digitalisation process.

The SOS Heritage web app is a digital tool designed to assist cultural sector professionals in carrying out risk assessment projects on the collections they manage.

As someone who may not have specific training in risk management for cultural heritage, you may find it challenging to identify the elements that can influence the levels of risk threatening the collection and the best procedures to defend against these threats. However, with the SOS-H web app, you can now have access to an interactive checklist that can guide you through the entire process of identifying the threats that loom over the analyzed collection.

Preserving our cultural heritage is crucial for future generations, and this requires cultural heritage professionals to possess the right skills in risk management. These professionals are responsible for safeguarding archaeological sites, monuments, libraries, museums, and archives from a range of potential threats.

To support this mission, the Transnational Training Course on Risk Management of Cultural Heritage was held from 20 to 24 March 2023 at the Universität für Weiterbildung Krems in Krems an der Donau, Austria.

Our online course covers cultural heritage protection and risk management for tangible cultural heritage from a cross-cutting perspective, ensuring that you are equipped with the skills you need to protect our cultural heritage for future generations.

Our course is designed for owners, managers, and operators of tangible cultural heritage, and we welcome participants from all backgrounds, including museums, libraries, archives, galleries, and other cultural heritage institutions.
