Core values, such as diversity, inclusivity, accessibility and multi-vocality are the basis for the improvement in visibility, usability and conservation of our heritage.
Course Description
The two-day masterclass Inconvenient Heritage, a collaboration between Maastricht University and Radboud University, explores the way in which heritage-professionals can respond to the current discussions and the changing policy on heritage collections in a colonial context.
