Thanks to the contributions from inside and outside the ICARUS network, our colleagues in Novi Sad, Serbia, were able to compile a spectacular programme, filling the days between 5-7 June 2024 with inspiring presentations and dedicated sessions, while not leaving out on opportunities for social interactions and getting to know the city and history of Novi Sad and Vojvodina.
Convention Programme:
In addition to presentations covering the main conference topics of “Minority Communities in Europe – Archival Materials and Other Sources” and “Archives and Societies – An Analog Archivist in a Digital World”, there will also be a session on Topotheque, introducing activities from partners in Croatia, Serbia, and Bosnia and Herzegovina, and a workshop focussing on charters and Monasterium.
A special session concentrating on case studies on “Conservation and Restoration of Paper and Parchment” from Serbia and Hungary will be held in parallel to the main conference on June 6th. Note: this dedicated workshop will be held in Serbian and Hungarian language, with simultaneous interpretation into Hungarian respectively Serbian.
The programme also includes:
- Sportive event: the traditional soccer match will take place in the evening of Wednesday, June 5th (note: we’ll play outside on artificial gras)
- Culinary feasts: reception at the Archives of Vojvodina (Wednesday); Joint dinner with a view, at restaurant Karlo on the Petrovaradin Fortress (on own expenses, Thursday)
