objectives

The advanced course aims to integrate, from an unprecedented mix of competences, the methods and tools of design with archival competences. The course is aimed at both the expert audience of the archive operators and the extended audience of the public that uses the archive services. In particular, the course considers the themes of inclusivity and extended accessibility as key elements of the project.

- identify cultural strategies

- set up partnerships
