Description

Three workshops are taking place in November and December in Inverness, Edinburgh and Glasgow to generate new ideas about the structure, funding and delivery of archaeology in Scotland. These are being organised by the Chartered Institute for Archaeologists (CIfA) on behalf of Scotland’s Strategic Archaeology Committee (SSAC) in line with Aim One - Delivering Archaeology of Scotland’s Archaeology Strategy. The topics of discussion that will frame the agenda at each workshop are outlined below. These will be supported by case study presentations. A series of written think pieces will be circulated in early November and followed by an online discussion opportunity using Twitter as the platform. These early discussions will be used to help frame the workshop agendas. Further information and the finalised workshop outlines will be available soon but please do book your place now if you’re interested in attending.

Workshop themes (these will be the same for each workshop):

  • Structure: How the sector is organised, managed and legislated
    Topics of discussion: self-regulation, Standard and guidance, licensing, quality management
  • Funding: Procurement and funding models
    Topics of discussion: different funding models, competitive tendering, design competition, models for assessing tenders on quality as well as cost
  • Delivery: Putting public benefit at the heart of what we do
    Topics of discussion: Embedding public/social benefit into WSI’s and PERDS, ensuring we have the right skills

Due to the scope of this project, limited spaces are available; more will be released if available in due course.
