Projects

MEG is keen to support and be involved in the development of projects that are of benefit to our members, and which help to advance the field of Museum Ethnography. Below are details of previous and ongoing projects in which we have played a central role.

Rethinking Relationships

We are pleased to work in partnership with the Pitt Rivers Museum (University of Oxford), the Horniman Museum and Gardens, World Museum, National Museums Liverpool, and the Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology (University of Cambridge), to advance the Rethinking Relationships project thanks to the support of Arts Council England.

Rethinking Relationships is a sector leading collaboration to develop and adapt museum practice to build trust with communities and improve access to collections with significance to them. It responds to questions all museums must face about how they interpret, record and acquire collections.
