Future of Finnish maritime archaeology seminar and survey
We wish to welcome divers, clubs and associations, museum and cultural environment professionals, companies focusing on maritime archeology and underwater construction and mapping, researchers, universities, public organizations and other interested parties from all over Finland welcome to participate in the workshop as well as to participate in the survey.
Influence the future of Finnish maritime archeology!
As a background for the workshop, we have prepared a survey, by answering which you have the opportunity to influence the workshop program and share your thoughts on the future of Finnish maritime archaeology.
The survey
provides a background for the future workshop, provides ideas for its
implementation and topics for its small groups. We want to hear what is thought
about Finnish maritime archaeology, what topics are interesting, who does it,
where it is implemented and what is expected from the future. All the answers
are of great help.
You can participate in the survey even if you do not attend the workshop. Answer the survey by March 20, 2022.
The answers to the survey will be processed anonymously and the identity of the respondent will not be known to the organizers of the survey at any stage. The survey can be answered in Finnish or English. It takes about 15 minutes to answer.
To answer in English, change the language from the menu in the upper right corner.
Workshop March 30, 2022
The workshop will be held on Wednesday, March 30, 2022 from 2 to 5 pm as a Teams remote event. The workshop will include presentations on the topic, a presentation of the preliminary results of the survey, as well as small group work and discussion on various topics related to maritime archaeology.
