“E-RIHS Enlargement Workshop: Extending Collaborations Inside and Outside Europe” – A successful global workshop

An opportunity for future international cooperation

The international online workshop “E-RIHS Enlargement Workshop: Extending Collaborations Inside and Outside Europe” was an extraordinary opportunity to present E-RIHS to all global partners interested in joining or working with the infrastructure in the future.

The workshop started with an open introductory session on May 17, 2024, to introduce E-RIHS and the long history of projects that prepared the infrastructure launch, its activities, its scientific vision, the development and improvement of the services offered, cutting-edge training opportunities, and different collaboration opportunities.

In between, before the public closing session on May 27, geographical working sessions were planned with interested partners. Brazil, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE showed great interest and presented the specific problems and needs of their respective countries in the cultural heritage sector.

The workshop was a success, showing the international interest in E-RIHS and paving the way for new opportunities and interesting challenges for the future.
