2018 Working Internationally Conference: Working locally, Thinking Globally The 6th Working Internationally Conference ‘Working Locally, Thinking Globally’ considers how museums can respond to the new international context in light of recent world events, while maintaining relevance for both domestic and international audiences. Alongside Rob Stein, Executive Vice President & Chief Program Officer, American Alliance of Museums (AAM), delegates will hear from Nina Zdraviè, Head of Programmes and Communications, Slovene Ethnographic Museum & ICOM Europe committee member and many more. The day includes a flash-session on funding and support available for internationally focused initiatives. A panel discussion with colleagues from Imperial War Museums, Manchester Museum, Edinburgh Airport and the V&A explores how they are adapting their organisations’ activity in response to the new political and social environment by exploring conflict, climate change, new patterns of tourism and digital reproduction. There are plenty of opportunities for questions to speakers and for networking with delegates over lunch and refreshments. To view the conference programme and book your tickets visit: https://wi2018.eventbrite.com Tickets are £45 for ICOM UK and NMDC members and £75 for non-members.
