Museum and Green Transformations
Following Green Heritage Manifesto: The First EU Manifesto for More Sustainable Museums
27 – 30 May 2024
Koper Regional Museum, Koper / Slovenia
The 15th International Summer School of Museology focuses on the climate change with the special emphasis on relations to museums and cultural heritage!
Climate change and global warming are reality and we all facing significant environmental problems. Natural disasters, fires, floods, earthquakes … have catastrophic consequences on our planet and life and we are witnesses of loss of biodiversity, loss of property, damaged cultural heritage. Programme raises questions what influences and consequences climate change has on cultural heritage and how heritage – tangible and intangible, could help to overcoming the critical situation. How can traditional knowledge and practices concerning nature and universe teach us respectful relationship to Nature to rise new prospective of life and new values? And how can museum contribute to the debate about climate crisis?
