Knowledge Exchange: Heritage organisations supporting Scottish Travellers
Event information
Date: 18th November
Time: 10 -11:30 am
Organiser: MGS and Progress in Dialogue
Venue: Online
This Knowledge Exchange will support learning from the Delivering Change programme, and is also open to anyone in the Scottish museum sector.
We will be joined by Progress in Dialogue, founded by Gypsy/Traveller activists, now growing and led by people from many marginalised communities, who platform lived experience. We will hear about Progress in Dialogue’s work, particularly with Scottish Travellers and Nawken communities, and how museums and heritage organisations could support with remembrance and reconciliation of past atrocities, with the Scottish Government’s recent apology of the ‘Tinker’ experiments in mind.
Please note this session will be recorded.
This meeting will be hosted on Zoom. Live captions will be available.
