More than 21 million people in Germany have an international history. Yet for a long time, their diverse stories were not heard in the German museum landscape and were relegated to niche programs and special exhibitions. In the meantime, a change in awareness has been heralded: diversity and cultural participation are on everyone's lips. But is this a sustainable development? In this expert discussion, experts from the museum landscape and culture will discuss how migration can be transferred to the museum and how true participation in the migration society can be achieved.
An event of the Bundeskunsthalle in cooperation with DOMiD.
