In August 2024, Blue Shield International gathered together with Blue Shield National Committees for the 2024 General Assembly and Training Course in Bucharest, Romania. The conference focused on emergency heritage trainings, celebrating the 70th anniversary of the Hague Convention, and presentations, panels, and talks from heritage professionals and committees from around the world. USCBS Vice-President, James K. Reap, attended and presented.
Recordings of the conference presentations are now available to view on the Blue Shield International website, along with more information about the meeting and trainings.
