Feedback
"The fact alone that somebody is thinking about this important topic on a higher level is encouraging, and to have the opportunity to meet the other colleagues that are eager to learn, share and expand their practical and theoretical knowledge was also very motivating. The time spent during these two weeks in conversation with other curators and museum practitioners was very valuable, because it was a good opportunity to share and compare our experiences – to identify the common problems and the specific differences that we encounter in everyday practice."
