ICOFOM in 2021 ICOFOM

This year has been fruitful and we are happy to share it with you.

 

ICOFOM Annual Symposium

This year’s symposium was called “The Decolonization of Museology: Museums, Mixing, and the Myths of Origins”. The event, previously scheduled to be held physically in Montreal from 28 September to 2 October 2020, was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We held it online from 15 to 18 March 2021.

All the videos are accessible over Facebook by following this link. The program can be accessed over the official website of the symposium: http://www.icofom2021.ca/

Monographs

Since 2018 ICOFOM has been developing a monographic series, with a specific design. Each publication is available online and many of the first monographs were printed (75 to 100 ex.). Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we decided to distribute them in digital form with an exception of the monograph in collaboration with the University of Jyväskylä that took on the publishing expenses.
