In what ways can museums contribute to a sustainable future through their collections and exhibitions?

<p><strong><strong>How can museums contribute to a sustainable future through their collections and exhibitions? This workshop-based expert meeting brings together an international group of curators, archivists, artists and academics to discuss regenerative museum practices.</strong></strong></p>

<p>The term ‘regeneration’ is the starting point for a discussion about how museums can actively contribute to processes of renewal, restoration and reconciliation. How can we collect with and for nature? How can we protect living materials and embrace natural rhythms, such as growth and decay? Together we will explore alternative approaches that can help restore balance to our world.</p><p>Taking part in the discussion are: Klaas Kuitenbrouwer (senior researcher at the Nieuwe Instituut and director of the Zoönomic Institute); Caitlin DeSilvey (author of the book <em><em>Curated Decay</em></em>, University of Exeter); Oliver Klimpel (head of the Curatorische Werkstatt, Bauhaus Dessau Foundation), Karin de Wild (assistant professor of contemporary museum and collection studies, Leiden University) and Yolande Zola Zoli van der Heide &amp; Abril Cisneros Ramirez (Van Abbemuseum).</p><p>Please note that places for this meeting are limited.</p>
