INTERNATIONAL
SCIENTIFIC COMMITTEE ON TWENTIETH
CENTURY HERITAGE
About us
The ICOMOS Twentieth Century Heritage International Scientific Committee is inter-disciplinary in its membership and recognises the diversity of regional and cultural expression in twentieth-century heritage. The ISC20C welcomes expert, associate, emerging professional and institutional members.
The committee focuses its efforts on conserving and celebrating mid to late twentieth-century places that are most at risk through lack of recognition and protection.
The committee co-ordinates a range of projects, conferences, declarations, and publications to address these issues. The Heritage Alerts program is a key advocacy project through which ISC20C raises international public consciousness about specific sites under threat.
