2023 IMA Annual Conference: Influencing Museums

The 2023 Irish Museums Association Annual Conference, Influencing Museums, will be held at Ulster University Magee Campus, Derry~Londonderry, on the 8 & 9 September 2023. 

Influencing Museums will explore the vital role of museums in influencing and informing important public conversations. By enhancing society’s understanding of the past, they are a catalyst for positive change in the world and - as we see the rise of a global ‘trust deficit’ - their status as a source of reliable information has never been more important. Through the discussions and dialogue, we will delve into concepts of neutrality, agendas and values, and the museum as activist players within our society.
