Conference: Participation and engagement, then and now

Participation shapes the work of cultural heritage institutions, as do transparency, sustainability and digitisation. The topic of participation is not new for these institutions, but it has a special importance.

Museums and memorial sites often owe their foundation to strong civic commitment. With this conference, the Braunschweigisches Landesmuseum would like to discuss the collection strategies and concepts of cultural heritage institutions, as they are shaped by strong public participation.
