International Committee for the Collections and Activities of Museums of Cities - Migration Workshop Glasgow 26/27 November 2015

Network: Harnessing Cultural Policies in Building Sustainable Learning Cities

We are living in cities which are becoming more culturally and linguistically diverse through migration. In 2015 CAMOC, in its special 10th year anniversary, decided to focus on migration and its representation in city museums, first by dedicating its annual conference on the theme and now by partnering with the Open Museum, Glasgow to organise a special interactive workshop on 26/27 November 2015. I hope that PASCAL subscribers may be interested in attending.
