>> 	• Asking how museum, heritage and cultural educators can take the lead in ensuring their organisation’s long-term future.
>>

We will explore exciting new research, fresh examples of best practice and promising innovations that will inspire museum, heritage and cultural professionals at any level.
>>  
>> Cuts to budgets and resources have had a large impact on the museum, heritage and cultural sectors – particularly their learning programmes. We are more responsive and flexible, but it is now time that those involved with learning become even more proactive, experimental and able to take the lead to ensure our long-term resilience and sustainability.
