MUSEUMS FOR CLIMATE ACTIONS: COP27 AND SHARM EL-SHEIKH MUSEUM

REIMAGINE MUSEUMS FOR CLIMATE CRISIS:  We were at the Sharm-El Sheikh Museum in Sharm El-Sheikh , South Sinai, Egypt! The only connection between COP27 and Sharm El-Sheikh Museum in this article is that they are located in the same place :) This is the city of COP27 this year, as you know... All eyes will be here again in November. So what can be the connection of the subject which is of interest to museologists with this place? The answer is the role of museums in the struggle against the climate crisis. In fact, you may remember the exhibition prepared by the Glasgow Science Center during the COP26 process. Emma Woodham, Climate Crisis Program Director of Glasgow Science Centre, said that they wanted to raise awareness, inform, influence and support the process in parallel with COP26 for the exhibition in question. The exhibition, Reimagining Museums for Climate Action , features eight exhibits was developed by teams from Scotland and the rest of the UK, the United States, Singapore
