At this Migration Network event we aim to bring together people from museums, cultural and academic organisations working on migration and related themes to share best practice and learn from each other

This online event will be a mixture of case studies, discussion groups and networking opportunities.

The four case studies will be:

The National Trust's Colonial Countrysides project at Speke Hall
The Museum of Liverpool's community outreach of The Secret Life of Pembroke Place
The Peoples' History Museum in Manchester's migration season programming
The Migration Museum's digital public engagement for Heart of the Nation

Afternoon facilitated discussion groups will cover:

working with asylum seekers and refugees
anti-racism commitments in your workplace
how to engage with schools on these themes
the process of co-developing a long term collection display on migration

Please note that these discussion group topics are subject to confirmation. We will be in touch to ask you to sign up for these once you have registered for this event. More to come!

This event is open to all but most relevant for those working across the North-West region. We understand that it may be a challenge to commit to a whole day event online (albeit with generous breaks!) and appreciate that participants might need to drop in and out during the day. So please sign up for this event and join us for the sessions that you are able to.

We look forward to 'seeing' you at this event.
