Help the MA build a map of climate crisis resources

The Museums Association is campaigning for museums to be more environmentally sustainable and address the climate crisis.

As part of our campaign, we’re seeking to map any resources currently available that will help the sector meet our three goals: get your museum in order; raise awareness; and champion change.

Resources can include organisational strategies, toolkits, learning materials, surveys, exhibition case studies, evaluation reports – any publicly available document, campaign or policy that your organisation has produced to address the climate and environmental crisis. These can cover all areas of museum activity, including front of house, learning and engagement, curatorial, exhibitions, management and HR.

We would also like to hear from museum and culture sector funders about climate-focused funding opportunities.

The resources will be published in an online infographic that will act as a one-stop shop of resources for tackling the climate crisis.

Please email Geraldine Kendall Adams, the MA’s news editor and staff writer, at geraldine@museumsassociation.org with your submissions by Monday 6 June.

In addition, we are seeking climate crisis-related museum exhibitions to review for this year’s themed September/October issue of Museums Journal. Exhibitions should be based in the UK and open during September and October 2022.

Please email Eleanor Mills, deputy editor of Museums Journal, at eleanor@museumsassociation.org with any suggested exhibitions by 1 June.
