Description

This event will bring together educators, researchers, and museum professionals to explore innovative approaches to rethinking narratives in museums and history education. The symposium aims to foster dialogue and exchange of ideas on critical issues surrounding historical representation and interpretation. The symposium will feature a plenary session with international keynote speakers, followed by interactive workshops. Confirmed speakers include Robbert-Jan Adriaansen from the Center of Historical Culture at the Erasmus University Rotterdam, Melanie Rowntree from the Pitt Rivers Museum, Hester Dibbits from the Reinwardt Academy, and Esther van Zutphen from the Wereldmuseum. These experts will share insights on current practices and future directions in museum labelling and historical narratives and provide hands-on workshops to share practical examples of how to address contested narratives, labels and objects in museums.
