As cultural heritage faces threats from environmental damage, conflict, and time, emerging technologies—especially artificial intelligence (AI)—offer powerful tools for digital preservation, restoration, and access. This course equips professionals in culture, technology, and archiving with the knowledge and skills to use AI for safeguarding heritage assets.

Participants will explore how AI supports image restoration, 3D reconstruction, automated metadata tagging, and language preservation. Through case studies and interactive sessions, the course demonstrates how museums, libraries, and cultural institutions can apply machine learning to revitalise artefacts, digitise collections, and democratise access for future generations.

By the end of this course, participants will be able to:

  • Understand the role of AI in preserving tangible and intangible cultural heritage.
  • Explore techniques such as digital restoration, image enhancement, and 3D reconstruction using AI.
  • Identify tools and platforms suitable for archiving and metadata generation.
  • Learn ethical considerations in digital heritage projects.
  • Apply AI-based methods to restore, document, and share cultural resources.

This course is designed for:

  • Archivists, museum curators, and heritage preservation professionals.
  • Researchers and academic professionals in history, archaeology, and digital humanities.
  • AI developers and data scientists interested in cultural preservation.
  • Public sector professionals in culture and heritage ministries.
  • Technologists and startups working on cultural digitisation.
  • NGOs involved in heritage conservation and education.

This course uses a mix of interactive lectures, real-life case studies, hands-on demonstrations, and collaborative projects. Participants will explore both the theoretical frameworks and practical applications of AI in heritage work, with opportunities to test AI tools and plan digital preservation strategies.

Day 5 of each course is reserved for a Q&A session, which may occur off-site. For 10-day courses, this also applies to day 10
