About this event

About this event

All charity trustees face a range ethical dilemmas, often revolving around financial integrity, accountability, and potential conflicts of interest. For Museum Trustees there are the additional considerations of the Museum Code of Ethics. Explore how you can confidently navigate ethical issues, provide great stewardship for your museum’s collections and retain public trust. This session is open to all Trustees from museums in the Midlands region and also Midlands museum staff who work closely with and advise their museum’s Board.

Maximum two delegates per organisation. Priority will be given to delegates from non-NPO and non-National museums in the Midlands which are Accredited or officially Working Towards Accreditation.
