In this episode of Museums and Chill, we sit down with Suzanne Dhaliwal, a leading climate justice creative and strategist, to explore the evolving role of museums in addressing the climate crisis.

Recorded live in London after the Serpentine Gallery’s Worldbuilding, Art & Technology in a Climate Changed World event, Suzanne shares insights on how museums can authentically center Indigenous, Black, and POC voices, foster creative collaborations, and navigate ethical challenges around funding.This timely conversation aligns with ICOM’s commitment to integrating culture into climate action, as highlighted at COP29, and reflects the theme of its upcoming General Conference, The Future of Museums in Rapidly Changing Communities.

We are excited to share the latest episode of the Museums and Chill podcast, where we talk about Sustainable Development in Museums with the team behind the ICOM Award.

In this episode, we discuss with the ICOM Award team about what Sustainable Development means and how it connects to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). You will learn about inspiring stories of museums that are leading the way in making a positive impact on their communities and the planet.

ICOM Award

The ICOM Award is the first global award organised by ICOM that specifically acknowledges and honors sustainable development practices within the museum community. We believe in the power of museums to drive positive change and contribute meaningfully to the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

The award aims to encourage the participation of Museums in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals and shed light on the concrete actions undertaken in that direction. The award process aims to be a platform to communicate the diverse ways that museums are working towards sustainable development and the SDGs.

The upcoming award ceremony will take place at the 2025 ICOM General Conference.

Este episodio de Museums and Chill es una reveladora exploración de la traducción de la definición de museo del ICOM a dos versiones de la lengua maya. También profundizamos en el complejo proceso de adaptación lingüística.

Además, conocemos los grandes retos a los que se enfrentan las comunidades indígenas en el ámbito de los museos, especialmente en lo que respecta a la preservación y representación de sus lenguas y patrimonio cultural. A menudo marginadas, estas comunidades no son tenidas en cuenta en las decisiones relativas a cuestiones lingüísticas y culturales dentro de los espacios museísticos.
