MUŻE.X Pre-Conference Webinar 1

18.30 CET (Malta) / 09.30 PDT / 02.30 AEST

We are delighted to present six international voices from the museum world, each of whom shall be sharing views and perspectives about museum futures in six pre-conference webinar events.

Each speaker shall present a personal reaction to future challenges and ambitions during a dedicated webinar. Towards the end, Mike Murawski, change leader and committed advocate for more equitable and community-centred museums shall present his reflections on the presentation and discussion. The webinars shall be moderated by Prof. Carmel Borg and Dr Sandro Debono from the Department of Arts, Open Communities and Adult Education, at the University of Malta.

The speaker for this first webinar is Nina Simon. Nina Simon is the Spacemaker and CEO of OF/BY/FOR ALL, a global nonprofit that creates digital tools to help civic and cultural organizations become more inclusive, relevant, and sustainable. Nina is best known for her seminal publications - The Participatory Museum (2010) and The Art of Relevance (2016).
We have asked speakers to react to the conference theme - 'Shaping Museum Futures' - through their very own lens, experience, advocacy and expertise. Knowing too well that this is the topic of the moment facing museums across the globe, the webinars shall hopefully contribute to the much-needed discussion about museums and their role in a post-COVID19 world.

Teo is a proud partner and supporter of MUŻE.X - Shaping Museum Futures.
