Museum Accessibility in Italy (2024)
International Perspetcives on Museum Management Edited by:Darko Babic. Pag 131 - 141 ICOM.
The themes of accessibility and inclusion in museums increasingly involve people with different forms of medical disabilities and social disadvantages. Many governments are now, finally, concentrated on this theme, including Italy, which has recently created within the MIBACT (Department of Cultural Heritage) a specific working group for public museums. Taking additional inspiration from the latest data on the strong impact of culture on health and its social role, ICOM Italia has included accessibility, sustainable development and wellbeing in its proposal for a new definition of museum.
