The Archaeological Profession in Ireland
The findings from the ‘Archaeological Profession in Ireland’ workshop are now accessible in the following report. The workshop was hosted by the Heritage Council in Kilkenny on Tuesday, 8th March 2011. The aim was to facilitate discussion of issues facing the archaeological profession. Members of the profession were invited to attend on a first come, first served basis.
Through an open forum and four focus groups, attendees worked together in articulating their opinions with a particular emphasis on looking at solutions to changes, due to the turbulent economic and political climate of recent years. This document is intended to record the constructive discussions that took place and to communicate them to a wider audience in the hope of stimulating further progress and to strengthen the profession.
