According to the ICOM (the International Council of Museums), museums today play a dual role:
- To ensure that natural heritage and humanity's cultural heritage are protected, documented and promoted
- To create knowledge and meaning for the development of society, in cooperation with the communities where the collections originate, as well as with the communities for which the museums provide services.
Today, new requirements and new meanings are being added (implicitly or explicitly) to these heritage-related and society-related functions. And we find that museums are much more than they might seem.
Let's put them together and find out about their other dimensions.
