Judith McCarthy, Curator of Donegal County Museum will share their work to date on the EU funded project – Digital Action for Climate Change in Heritage Environments (DACCHE). The aim of the project is to build the capacity of local communities and heritage organisations to understand, communicate and mitigate the impacts of climate change on cultural landscapes and heritage sites. Judith will also give insights into how the Museum became involved with the project and what else they are doing in the area of climate action.

In recognising the unique roles that Green Teams play in our organisations for the benefit of society, this meeting will aim to provide a platform for dialogue, foster new relationships, and encourage cross-sector teamwork.

 

Key themes:

  • Climate mitigation within arts and heritage sectors
  • Strategies for sustainable museum practices
  • Collaborative projects and initiatives
  • Representation at EU level
