Members' Meetup

All members of NEMO are welcome to join the Members’ Meetup for a chance to meet in an informal setting to share updates and recent projects. The Members’ Meetup presents an opportunity for peer-learning from presentations delivered by fellow members.

The next NEMO Members’ Meetup will take place on Tuesday 2 December from 11:00-12:00 CET. We will meet online via Zoom. This time, we will focus on the theme of cricital thinking. 

  • No registation is mandatory. Instead we will send the Zoom link to all members per email. Please include the link in your calendar or join us directly. 
  • If you have any questions, please get in touch with office@ne-mo.org.

We’ll begin the Members' Meetup with a brief introduction by Sandro Debono, NEMO board member and museum thinker, who will introduce the topic of critical thinking. 

Caroline Wable will speak on behalf of the NEMO member Universciene Paris and present a case study on critical thinking, addressing how museums are key promoters of critical thinking.

After the presentations, there will be time for discussion, questions, and most importantly - exchange among members.
