Annual Conference on South Asia @ University of Wisconsin-Madison
Back in 2004, 2005 and 2006, some SANEYOCOP members had used the Annual Conference on South Asia at the University of Wisconsin-Madison (US) as a platform to get together and organize a panel focusing on conservation in South Asia. Please see the forwarded message below, and if anyone is interested in organizing a panel or writing a paper on any topic; lets discuss about it.
Along with the South Asian conference, there is another conference on Himalayan Policy research usually a day before the South Asian conference in the same venue. I will forward information about that as it becomes available.
Any body interested?

York-ICOMOS Conference: Call for Papers
Call for papers for a 3-day conference on "Conservation Philosophies: Global or Local?" being organized by the University of York, Department of Archaeology - Centre for Conservation Studies.

For Details, go to http://blog.icomos-uk.org/ or continue reading this blog:
Is there such a thing as a global conservation philosophy for cultural heritage?
Should there be? Or should cultural heritage conservation reflect cultural diversity?
The 1965 Venice Charter was based on the idea that the principles guiding the
preservation and restoration of ancient buildings should be agreed and laid down
on an international basis, with each country being responsible for applying them
within the framework of their own culture and traditions.
These aspirations were translated into an Australian national framework by the
Burra Charter, the Australian National Charter, 1979. The idea of universality
was strengthened by the 1972 World Heritage Convention with its concept of
outstanding universal value for properties that might be seen part of the ‘world
heritage of mankind as a whole’, which thus translated universal ideas to places
perceived to be of universal value.
In recent years the China Principles,2002, and the INTACH Charter for the Conservation of Unprotected Architectural Heritage and Sites in India, 2004, have developed conservation guidance related to specific cultural traditions. Do these still somehow reflect the idea of an over-arching conservation philosophy that can be seen to be global? Or are they stand alone documents whose similarities merely
reflect the interchange of ideas between east and west?
Conservation Philosophies:Global or Local?
A three day Conference organised by Centre for Conservation Studies, Department of Archaeology, University of York and ICOMOS-UK
3 - 5 June 2010, King’s Manor, York, UK
CALL FOR PAPERS
The Conference will consider these thoughts through exploring conjunctions and differences between conservation philosophies and principles in UK, India and China. Contributions on the following themes are welcomed:
• Are coincidences in conservation ideas between east and west the result of direct contact and exchange of ideas between conservation professionals in the 19th and 20th centuries?
• Are coincidences of outcome influenced more by changing overarching philosophies – the westernisation of the east (colonialism)and the easternisation of the west?
• Is there an over-arching conservation philosophy which brings east and west together at a global level and within which regional and national principles, policies and practice can be developed, or are there fundamental dichotomies and
irreconcilable differences?
• At a practical level, is there potential for international agreement on methods of, and standards for, conservation interventions at cultural heritage sites?
Abstracts for proposed papers (15 minutes) on these themes will be accepted until
Friday 5th March 2010.
Instructions for Submitting an Abstract (please read carefully)
• Abstracts must be received in ICOMOS-UK by 5th March 2010
• Text of 300-500 words in English
• The page with the abstracts must contain AT THE TOP the title of the proposed paper, the name of the author(s), and contact information (institutional affiliation, mailing address, phone number and email address)
• A committee from ICOMOS-UK and the University of York will evaluate all
abstracts. Authors selected for paper presentations will be notified by 22th
March 2010. Final written and electronic papers must be received by
ICOMOS-UK by 3rd May.
• ICOMOS-UK will accept electronic (Microsoft Word or Adobe pdf files only) abstracts sent by email to camillamassara@icomos-uk.org
• For specific queries on the themes please contact:

Talking about conservation
The idea of SANEYOCOP emerged from a need to connect aspiring conservation professionals from South Asia with fellow colleagues in the region. So far, the email based platform has been a venue for sharing news, ideas and concerns among ourselves. While the model of the network has been picked up by other institutions in the region to set up similar platforms, it is not too late for SANEYOCOP to start a easy web-based forum to facilitate the exchange of news, views and concerns. The name of the blog "Conservation South Asia" is borrowed from SANEYOCOP newsletter that has been somehow irregular after a few issues of its publication. So, please join us and lets engage in the conversation.
