Our ICOM MPR Challenge 2020 7.5 Minutes Hotdesk on the Topic NARRATIVES - Long Story Short is coming to it's next step:
Our ICOM MPR board member Joy Chih-Ning Hsin is talking with Carol Scott (GB)
Carol Scott takes a birds-eye view of the concept of meta-narrative, Beginning with a definition of meta-narratives and a brief discussion of how they are constructed, she goes on to look at how museums' meta-narratives are affected by a combination of institutional purpose and their role as cultural agencies which reflect the dominant narratives of wider societies. Meta-narratives are, however, subject to challenge and Carol concludes by looking at the impact of recent changes to meta-narratives which are having profound impacts on museums.
GUEST: Carol Scott Carol Ann Scott is an international museum consultant who specialises in museum value. She has published widely in this area, most recently ‘Museums and Public Value: taking the pulse’ (2019) and ‘Museums, Branding and Values: harnessing the future’ (2020).

NARRATIVES. LONG STORY SHORT...
Dear Colleagues, it was a hard decision to take. With a bleeding heart we have to cancel our conference for current reasons. At the moment, we cannot take responsibility for further preparing such an international conference.
In Kassel, we are facing strict entry restrictions or possibly a shutdown by order of the local health department and are very concerned about health risks for staff members and our visitors.
With the hope of your understanding. Take care of yourself & your families!
Yours
Matthias Henkel, Chair of ICOM MPR
Peter Stohler, Host of the conference
PS: We still ask you to save the date (September 21-26, 2020) - because we are currently evaluating the possibility of being able to deal with the topic using a digital format. This would also have the advantage of making an active contribution to environmental protection.
Please stay tuned.
