The 9^th edition of the "Conservation of Architectural Heritage (CAH)" conference is going to be held in Luxor and Aswan, which are two landmarks of the Egyptian architectural heritage, where history and beauty come together to create a beautiful background for the conference. Nestled along the banks of the Nile River, and known as the world's greatest open-air museum, Luxor offers a large number of monuments, temples, and tombs that portray the beauty and allure of ancient Egypt. Aswan on the other hand, known for its natural beauty and iconic sights like the iconic Philae Temple and the high dam, captivates everyone's attention and guarantees an amazing fun time among the people of Aswan. These two cities embody the essence of Egypt's rich heritage offering participants and attendees of the conference an unmatched experience.

With many factors, affecting architectural heritage, like decay due to the passage of time, along with exposure to different weather conditions, and lack of protection, this architecture is subjected to damage much quicker than it was intended to. This is a motive to continue the conversation, rehabilitation, restoration, and adaptive reuse of architectural and archeological sites. Heritage conservation is the idea of managing the changes happening around architecture. It entails evaluation, analysis, documentation, conservation, and, most importantly, strategic management.

The conservation of architectural heritage preserves cultural identity, provides educational value, creates a sense of place and community engagement, offers economic benefits through cultural tourism, promotes environmental sustainability, and contributes to social cohesion.

Protecting and maintaining architectural heritage ensures that future generations can appreciate and learn from the physical manifestations of our past. Over the past few decades, the preservation of architectural history has experienced significant growth. The values that the architectural historic materials provide for many people, organizations, societies, and governments serve as the foundation for conservation practice. To encourage the conservation of architectural heritage, IEREK is organizing the 9^th edition of its “Conservation of Architectural Heritage (CAH)” conference.

Conference Scope

In its 9^th edition of the (CAH) conference, IEREK continues the conversation regarding heritage conservation. The conference discusses the idea that development and history ought to be complementary rather than contradictory. The conference not only discusses the ideas of heritage conservation and maintenance against decay factors, but it also discusses how this will be examined under the headings of sustainability and accessibility, with a discussion about the connections between development and the preservation of cultural assets. The conference covers creative and versatile approaches to the conservation of related intangible heritage elements as well as tangible historic monuments, such as architectural landmarks and civic and military legacy. It also discusses the value, uniqueness, and authenticity of cultural heritage as well as the financial benefits of its preservation. The conference addresses not only the different approaches to preserving cultural assets but also the role that even technology can play in the process and how citizens and the government implement policies. The conference will also discuss the influence of tourism on heritage sites, creative design techniques, and climate change responses.

Statement of Purpose

This conference aims to give academics and professionals a forum to exchange experiences, ideas, and innovative techniques in the field of architectural heritage conservation. The objective of the conference is to promote cooperation and the sharing of ideas and best practices through the contribution of attendees to different discussions. This conference seeks to promote various strategies for the preservation of architectural heritage. By exchanging information, insights, and stories, we can motivate people and organizations to actively participate in the preservation of our built heritage. Researchers, scholars, policymakers, and students are invited to contribute their work on the preservation of architectural heritage.

IEREK has an unyielding policy regarding plagiarism. We believe that copying/taking the ideas and work of other Authors without permission and credit is fraudulent. The Reviewing committee and IEREK employees have the authority to reject a paper during its reviewing process, based on the paper being subjected to either minor or major plagiarism.

Authors must refer to, and abide by, the following instructions in submitting their abstracts/ papers:

Step 1: Abstract Submission Process

• The author should prepare and submit an Abstract of at least 150 – 300 words through the website.
• The abstract should be concise and clearly state the proposed research study's purpose, results, and conclusions.
• The author should select the most relevant topic for the paper from the corresponding conference topics.
• The author can use/download an Abstract Writing Template prior to submission
• To submit your abstract, you first need to (1) click on the “Register” button on the conference page, (2) click on “Submit Now” and:
  • Select the Topic in which you are making the submission
  • Insert the title of your study in the "Paper Title" section
  • Insert the full abstract in the "Abstract" section/upload a file in the .pdf, .doc, .docm, or .docx format
  • Add in writing 3 – 5 keywords that define the field, subfield, topic, and research area covered by the article to help other researchers understand and find your work.
  • Provide the names, affiliations, and E-mails of all authors/ co-authors involved
  • Confirm your submission by ticking having read the instructions and “submit Abstract”

Step 2.1: Abstract Acceptance

• After acceptance of your abstract of at least (150 – 300 words), you will receive a proforma invoice and specific instructions to complete the payment online or by bank transfer (See Conference Fees) to confirm your participation,
• Once your abstract has been accepted, please refer to the important dates tab and carefully review the announced dates to avoid late payment, as late payment comes at an extra charge (early bird/regular/late).
• After successfully completing payment, you will be issued upon request with the following:
  • A signed/ stamped abstract acceptance letter
  • Please note that acceptance of participation, abstract submission, and extended abstract/short paper submissions all have different deadlines. To stay up to date and avoid paying extra fees, or delaying your paper, please carefully review the important dates tab.
  • Receipt of Payment/ Payment Invoice
  • Visa Invitation Letter, if needed
• After abstract acceptance, you may be given the option to extend the abstract to publish your work in the conference proceedings in ASTI published by Springer Nature (indexed in Scopus/SCImago) (optional not obligatory).

  This is not a prerequisite for presenting your work at the conference. Meaning, you can present your submitted abstract without intending to publish your work.

Step 2.2: Abstract Extension / Short Paper (Optional)

• Your short paper / extended abstract should be 4 – 6 pages long and submitted before the paper submission deadline, in English, and fit within one of the conference topics.
• The Extended abstract i.e., the short paper should follow the research paper structure as follows: Abstract (+keywords), Introduction, problem statement, and study aim, Review of the Literature, Methodology, results and conclusion/ discussion, References list using the Paper Writing Template.
• The submission (short paper i.e. extended abstract) should be made following the same procedure followed for the abstract or sent to the conference email.
• Here: Authors may need more pages than the allotted maximum of 6 to insert figures, tables, appendixes, etc. In this case, they can submit regular papers (max. 12 pages) with the same fixed fee. For a detailed outline of the fees, please refer to the payment table in the conference fees tab.
• The conference does welcome Arabic submissions (with abstracts written in the english language), which will only be considered for publication in BAHETH by IEREK Press.

Step 3: Rigorous Peer Review Process (double-blind)

This process can only be initiated after payment completion and confirmation:

• If submitted, the extension (short paper) will be preliminarily checked (iThenticate plagiarism/ similarity screening Software, readability, and scope) and it will be peer-reviewed. If similarity issues are detected, the following will apply:
  • % from all sources: 10-15%
  • % from one source: 3-5%
  • Higher than 30% (all sources): Reject completely
  • Lower than 30% (all sources): Ask for revision to decrease the similarities
• IEREK has an unyielding policy regarding plagiarism. We believe that copying/ taking the ideas and work of other Authors without permission and credit is fraudulent. The Reviewing committee and IEREK employees have the authority to reject a paper during its reviewing process, on the basis of the paper being subjected to either minor or major plagiarism.
• Each paper/ chapter is evaluated by a minimum of two reviewers, after which a final decision by the responsible Editor is made. There is no maximum to the number of times a paper can be reviewed, depending on the quality of the submission.
• If your short paper is accepted by the Editors for publishing with comments/ requested modifications, our Editors (publishing department) will contact you once a decision is made and you will be asked to revise and correct it. After resubmission, it will be re-checked. Note: There may be more than one round of peer review and the decision rests with the editors of the title. Missed deadlines may result in complete exclusion/ rejection from the final publication.
• If your short paper is accepted for publishing without edits/ comments, the corresponding author will be contacted to provide the final version of their chapters/ papers following Springer Guidelines and sign the Springer consent-to-publish (CTP) form to authorize publication in the conference proceedings.
• A back-and-forth process: modifications will be sent back to the responsible Editor/ Series Editor and another round of evaluation conducted where needed. Participants/ Authors should regularly check their emails (Junk/ Spam folders).
• If you are not interested in publishing an extended abstract in the proceedings in ASTI by Springer Nature, please inform the conference support ([email protected]).

Step 4: Extended paper 

• After the conference, the authors of the best papers will be invited to submit an extended version of their research, 8 – 12+ pages in length, (optional) of their short papers for publishing in an edited volume to be published by Springer Nature.
• Publishing your short paper (i.e., extended abstract) in the conference proceedings does not prevent the submission of the full version for publishing consideration after the conference if the similarity percentages (SR%) in Step 3 are taken into account.
