About the initiative

Cultural heritage can be damaged quickly by disasters, conflict, neglect or unsuitable interventions. FACHI helps people respond in the first critical moments, before professional conservation is possible.

The initiative builds practical skills among heritage professionals, volunteers and local communities so that cultural heritage at risk can be documented, protected and stabilised in time.
