New strategic directions have been developed. They are divided into three main areas; training, research, and communication, information, and advice, with their corresponding objectives.

Training

• to ensure the quality and relevance of ICCROM training

Research

• to reintegrate and re-emphasize the important role of materials science, scientific methodologies, and conservation science in ICCROM’s programmes and activities;
• to ensure that ICCROM continues to take an interdisciplinary approach and integrate the results of research in conservation-related fields.

Communication, information, and advice

• to ensure that ICCROM remains a reliable and up-to-date source of information and advice for Member States.
