Increasing awareness among museums, institutions, and tribal communities about the potential risks of pesticide contamination residues on cultural heritage collections is critical, especially with increasing Indigenous involvement in collection care and the formal repatriation of cultural heritage to Native communities. This course will cover the components of how to evaluate potential pesticide contamination and human risk. Each webinar will provide resources and examples on a specific topic, as well as opportunities for discussion and examples.
