Report on Ecomuseums and climate change

The open-access book ‘Ecomuseums and Climate Change’ explores how ecomuseums and community museums are acting as catalysts for transition, renewal, and sustainable development and how they might effectively contribute to the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals and climate action.

The book, and its collection of essays from around the world, demonstrates how small local actions, considered together, can have a dramatic and far-reaching impact. The authors write that the book is likely to be warmly welcomed by anyone interested in climate action, heritage and museum studies and environmental issues.
