Online roundtable on strong and vulnerable museums in the era of crisis

At the invitation of ICOM Russia, NEMO joined the roundtable talk “Museums in the Era of Crisis: Strong and Vulnerable”, which took place online on 8 July 2020.

David Vuillaume, Chair of NEMO’s Executive Board, participated on behalf of NEMO. He introduced the results of NEMO’s survey on COVID-19’s impact on the museum sector. All participants in the discussion, for example the directors of the Pushkin Museum and of the Hermitage Museum, were carefully optimistic about the future development of the museum sector. They all underlined the importance of international exchanges during and after the crisis.
