ICOMOS General Assembly 2020 \u2013 Sydney, Australia<\/strong><\/p>\r\n

Deadline: 15 February 2019
\r\n
\r\nExpressions of interest are invited for the volunteer position of the International Co-Chair of the Scientific Symposium to be held between 5 and 9 October 2020 as part of the 20th Triennial General Assembly of ICOMOS in Sydney, Australia (GA 2020).
\r\n
\r\nThe GA 2020 Scientific Symposium will be overseen by two Co-chairs; one appointed by Australia ICOMOS, Steve Brown, and the other appointed by ICOMOS international. These positions are voluntary and the Co-Chairs are expected to attend the General Assembly and Scientific Symposium in person at own cost (registration, travel, accommodation, etc.). If eligible, financial support for attendance can be sought, for example through the ICOMOS General Assembly Travel Grants programme (but is not guaranteed).
\r\n
\r\nIt is intended that the Co-Chairs will be assisted by a small supporting sub-committee, also volunteers, half of which will also be selected following an international \u2018Expression of Interest\u2019 process in the first half of 2019.
\r\n
\r\nThe theme of GA 2020 Scientific Symposium is \u2018shared cultures \u2013 shared heritage \u2013 shared responsibility\u2019. Within the framework of this overall theme, a range of sessions will be offered covering different subjects, in a variety of formats and of varying lengths. Some sessions may be traditional \u2018conference-style\u2019 presentations whereas others may be less formal workshops or facilitated discussions. Building on previous ICOMOS events and responding to the interests of GA 2020 project partners, some sessions \u2013 such as the ICOMOS \/ IUCN \u2018Nature-Culture Journey\u2019 and programs that connect selected National Committees of ICOMOS with Sydney\u2019s related multicultural communities \u2013 will need to be included, while others will be selected by the Scientific Symposium Co-Chairs and Sub-committee.
\r\n
\r\nA call for expressions of interests will invite proposals for specific sessions and session conveners, papers or other program \u2018content\u2019. Selected posters from the Scientific Symposium will be included in a public \u2018Heritage Exposition\u2019 to be staged at Sydney\u2019s International Convention Centre during the course of the Scientific Symposium and over the following weekend. The call for sessions, papers and posters for the GA2020 Scientific Symposium is scheduled to take place in the second half of 2019; with the selection announced in late March 2020 following review of all submissions.
\r\n
\r\nThe role of the international Co-Chair will include:<\/p>\r\n

1. Liaison with the ICOMOS Scientific Council and Advisory Committee regarding the GA2020 Scientific Symposium; Working collaboratively with the Australian Co-chair to develop the symposium structure and organisation, including calls for sessions and papers, matters relating to timetabling, oversight of assessment of proposals (with the GA2020 Scientific Committee), ensuring geographical representation and development of symposium publications and documents. The responsibilities of the International Co-Chair would commence as soon as possible and be most intensive during 2020, but would continue into 2021 to ensure post-Symposium tasks such as reporting and publication of proceedings;<\/p>\r\n

2. If necessary, on invitation by the GA2020 Organizing Committee (costs covered), attend a planning meeting in Sydney (perhaps in early 2020).
