This page on Sustainable Practices in conservation is maintained by members of the AIC Committee for Sustainable Practice in Conservation (formerly known as the Green Task Force). The initial mission of the group was to evaluate US conservators’ current awareness of sustainability and how we are working towards more appropriate practices in museums and private businesses. Our committee charge is as follows:


  • Provide resources for AIC members and other caretakers of cultural heritage regarding environmentally sustainable approaches to preventive care and other aspects of conservation practice. Resources may be provided via electronic media, workshops, publications and presentations.


  • Define Research topics and suggest working groups as needed to explore sustainable conservation practices and new technologies.
