L’Internationale, Museum of the Commons - Towards a Healthier Arts Ecosystem (MoC)
The Museum of the Commons project encourages contemporary museums and cultural organisations to act as open source tools for new sustainable forms of cultural co-creation, contributing to environmental, social, and artistic transformation.
The Museum of the Commons (MoC) is a 4 year programme developed by the European confederation of contemporary art museums, L’Internationale. The MoC encourages contemporary museums and cultural organisations to act as open source tools for new sustainable forms of cultural co-creation, contributing to environmental, social and artistic transformation. For over two centuries, museums have been the custodians of heritage and memory. However, in recent decades, they have become key spaces of the public sphere in which major challenges are addressed and discussed, such as climate change, social inclusion and equality.
Project activities and research emerging from Museum of the Commons can be found on L’Internationale Online.
