Network of European Museum Organisations (NEMO) har publisert rapporten “Museums in the climate crisis: Survey results and recommendations for the sustainable transition of Europe”.
Basert på svar fra 578 museer i 38 europeiske land viser rapporten til sju anbefalinger på hvordan imøtekomme og være forberedt på utfordringene klimakrisen bringer med seg til museene og deres samlinger, og hvordan museene kan være en viktig alliert i “det grønne skiftet” – som formidlere og kunnskapsinstitusjoner.
“To develop the full potential of museums, it is key to understand where they most need support, and where their power and opportunity lie. (…) The results have fed into a comprehensive report that aims at creating conditions for museums where they can contribute to fighting climate change while reducing their negative impact on the environment.
Afterall, climate change will transform our world dramatically, and every sector, including museums, must collectively advocate and adapt to this unequalled challenge. If prioritized and supported adequately, museums can be powerful partners in the sustainable, just and green transformation of Europe.”
