ClimAid is a research project dedicated to supporting the climate transition of the museum sector in Cyprus.
Led by CYENS Centre of Excellence, ClimAid brings together a dynamic consortium with the Department of Contemporary Culture – Deputy Ministry of Culture and Periopsis, aiming to equip museum professionals, institutions, and policymakers with a decision-support tool to support their transition toward climate resilience and environmental sustainability
By integrating climate risk assessment with museum needs and operational realities, ClimAid aims to facilitate the cultivation of radical changes to the museum sector in Cyprus and enable evidence-based, culturally sensitive transformations across the museum sector.
The project aspires to set a new standard for climate resilience in museums, combining technological innovation, cultural sensitivity, and strategic stakeholder engagement to safeguard and enhance the cultural heritage of Cyprus for future generations.
ClimAid has secured funding under the Excellence Hubs call and is implemented under the Programme of Social Cohesion “THALIA 2021–2027”, co-funded by the European Union through the Research and Innovation Foundation.
Primary Investigator and Project Coordinator: Dr Maria Shehade, Senior Research Associate, Itica/Museum Lab, CYENS Centre of Excellence.
