Term Series: Diverse narratives, inclusive spaces: embracing multivocality, creativity and  sustainability in Museums

Description/Themes: The final theme in the series seeks to explore how different museum experiences as well as  museum practitioners have challenged dominant historical narratives, given voice to  marginalised communities, created meaningful and sustainable environmental connections and  transformed the museum landscape by introducing novel digital approaches. We want to  highlight through different case studies from museums across the Americas, how this  commitment to multivocality, inclusivity, responsible sustainability and digital engagement  extends beyond representation alone; it encompasses the very fabric of museum spaces,  programs, and practices.
