Is your museum Cognitively Accessible?

Museums work hard to serve diverse users as part of democratic infrastructure, ensuring equal civic participation. As we shape the future of museums, many invest in physical accessibility but overlook psychological accessibility – a crucial component of universal design for tomorrow’s cultural institutions. This inclusion aspect is often forgotten when focusing on physical improvements. Yet both dimensions are essential for the future of museums to fulfill their democratic role, providing equal opportunities for all citizens to engage with cultural heritage and public discourse. In this presentation, two Nordic ambassadors of inclusive museum design will help you remember underrepresented museum users when developing accessibility strategies that will define the future of museums and truly serve democratic participation.
