Cultural Heritage Committee Seeks New Members

*10/23/2024 ��� The Cultural Heritage Committee is no longer accepting applications. Thank you for your interest.

ASOR���s Cultural Heritage Committee is placing a call for consideration for membership on the Committee for the class of 2027 with a number of open slots beginning January 2025.��You can read about the Committee���s charge and purpose here.

The Committee has actively worked to energize ASOR���s membership to respond to renewal requests of Memoranda of Understanding (MoU) under the US Cultural Property Implementation Act for areas central to ASOR���s mission; hosted an FOA webinar ���A World at War: Protecting Cultural Heritage in Times of Conflict���; organized a workshop, ���Giving it Back: Repatriation and the Ownership of Antiquity���, at the 2023 Annual Meeting; and will be hosting another workshop, ���Repatriation in the Global Context���, at the upcoming 2024 Annual Meeting.

Committee members serve a three-year renewable term and are expected to attend monthly committee meetings, conducted via Zoom. All committee members should be members of ASOR.

Please email a brief CV and explain why you are interested in being a part of this committee and what insights you would bring to the committee on cultural heritage issues to the Chair of the committee, Jane DeRose Evans:��jevans@temple.edu.
