The 28th Annual Conference of the Network of European Museum Organisations (NEMO) will be held in Rijeka, Croatia on the theme "Museums making sense".
The NEMO annual conference encourages representatives from European national museum organisations, museum experts, and stakeholders from the European cultural and heritage sector to discuss topics relevant to the European museums, exchange expertise, liaise, and network.
The conference will discuss how museums can help visitors make sense of complicated matters – be it climate change or migration processes or economic relations. Through storytelling methods, museums can help us understand complex interrelations. Multiperspective approaches can help us appreciate different perspectives. Museums can work as innovative labs to test different complex scenarios, giving the opportunity to find answers for questions like: How do we want to live? How could the future look like? In-person exchange is invaluable and a network like ours thrives from personal connections. Therefore, we want to (safely) reconnect in Rijeka, Croatia. The format will be different to ensure your well-being and we will invite a limited number of participants. You may also expect some online sessions to accompany the “offline” programme.
