Herramientas de Transformación 6: Museos Regenerativos - Principios, Casos y Futuros Socio-Ecológicos

Wed., Aug. 13; 1 p.m. EST; R.S.V.P. to Attend

How can museums reconnect people with nature and inspire future generations to respond to social and environmental degradation? In this webinar, special guest speaker Lucimara Letelier discusses how museums can become active agents of regeneration—cultivating awareness, resilience, and transformation within communities and ecosystems. Based on her research conducted in the UK, she conceptualized the idea of “Regenerative museums”. In this presentation, Lucimara will present the guiding principles of regenerative practices in museums and share compelling case studies from various organizations, including some from Brazil and other parts of the globe, illustrating their application.
