What role do museums play in scenarios of ecological, political, and social complexity? What contributions can they offer to communities in order to interpret problems and explore possible alternatives? How can contemporary creativity and scientific research provide a space to practice care and envision desirable futures to strive towards?
The National Mountain Museum, a conscious and open advocate for the world’s mountains since 1874, launched its Sustainability Program in 2018. It is a constantly evolving, permeable, and receptive multidisciplinary tool, designed to operate both within and beyond the physical and conceptual boundaries of the institution to actively engage audiences and the broader community in the delicate process of ‘ecological revolution’.
