Description
This module focuses on social justice, inclusion and access in a range of museums, galleries and archives, onsite and offsite. The emphasis is on informal learning, outreach and community work; and on other audiences such as lifelong learners, and how to balance this work with core audiences such as schools. It looks at varieties of providers including volunteers; and broadly at diversity. The focus of the practice-focused coursework is on how to develop museum and gallery learning projects and programme ideas and how to secure funding for them. Research themes include decolonisation; biodiversity and climate change; health and wellbeing; poverty; inequality and exclusion; democratisation and co-production; human and cultural rights & activism.
