The 13th CoMuseum International Conference entitled Museums and Justice is around the corner! This year’s Conference is about justice and representation: being fair within and through museums and cultural organizations. We will discuss the degree to which DEIA (Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, Accessibility) principles are being considered or applied internally in cultural organizations in terms of employment, governance,  and programming, and how in turn this process, or lack of, affects cultural action around the world.
