Group description

We are a team of professionals, mainly, but not only, linked to Universidad Complutense de Madrid (Spain). Our team includes specialists from different fields (heritage, archaeology, sociology, architecture, law and economy) and we work together to try bringing up something useful. Our motto is "Innovating in Cultural Heritage Management" and that is the basis of our work. We try to find innovative solutions for the management of cultural heritage, delving into new processes of engagement and participation, risk management, conservation, sustainability, etc. All these lines are tightly linked and our experience in archaeological heritage management has led us to research into conflict, participation, World Heritage, sustainability, economic impact, legislation, tourism and a long etcetera. We have been involved in heritage management since the early 80s with several activities and publications, starting to teach archaeological heritage management in the Prehistory Department at UCM as soon as the course of 1991/1992 and becoming a norm ever since, being now a compulsory subjet in the new Archaeology degree. Museology, Legislation or even Public Archaeology lately, have been other spearheads within our group, that got enriched with the participation of Sociology and Economy professionals once it was formalized.

2016 is our latest milestone with the approval of an official Masters Degree in Cultural Heritage Management where 32 Departments of 2 universities are involved
