Topic
This children in museums HUB live training series is part of our ongoing Creative Europe 21st Century Children project.
The over-all objective of this project is to showcase and to tackle the potential of the unique quality and character of children-oriented museums for benefiting society as future-oriented, 21st Century learning spots.

2020 has been a critical year for all cultural institutions, as social interaction has become a health threat. Yet – with fall – this year’s harvest is ready to bring in.  Although it is not possible to meet physically as we originally planned, there still is the need to look at what we harvesting this year: What benefit/losses the children in museums field globally gained, what have they learned, what quality proved sustainable?

With this ‘harvest’ there is also a time and space to think how to go on: to imagine, envision the next steps and strategy how to go on and how to continue to be the relevant social hub and a gate to culture for children and their families.
