Communities, Crises, Commerce: When can Museologists make a Difference in the World?

The second Reinwardt Academy Master of Museology Alumni Symposium will take place on 10th November 2016 at the Reinwardt Academy in Amsterdam. This symposium will provide a platform for Alumni and current students to share experiences, challenges and best practice around the theme of ‘Communities, Crises, Commerce: When can museologists make a difference in the world?’.

Museums and heritage institutions are under pressure to make savings, are often adopting corporate management models, and are negotiating a path between being sociable spaces and being socially engaged. How does this impact museologists working in different contexts? Should we, as museologists, challenge beliefs and attitudes? When and how can museum professionals make a difference? Join us and sign up.
