Knowledge Creation in Museums
Episode 1
Friday, 22 March, 2024

Museums are often considered as instruments of dissemination of knowledge created elsewhere, but museums have a deep history as institutions of knowledge creation behind the scenes of their public exhibitions. How is the definition of museum-based research shifting in the 21st century? How can museums facilitate knowledge creation with and by the public? How can exhibitions become experiments? How is collection-based research changing in the face of movements to decolonize museums? How can museum-based research assist in tackling “wicked problems”, from climate change to the biodiversity crash? This interdisciplinary panel will explore the future of knowledge creation in museums. | Ken Arnold ist Direktor des Medical Museion in Kopenhagen und Professor im Department of Public Health an der Universität Kopenhagen. | Tahani Nadim ist Juniorprofessorin für Europäische Ethnologie an der HU Berlin und am Museum für Naturkunde Berlin. | Johannes Vogel ist Generaldirektor des Museums für Naturkunde Berlin und Professor für Biodiversität und Public Science an der HU Berlin.
