Description

This international youth workshop in Cork, Ireland, formed part of the global series Young People Shaping the Future of Museology through the Lens of the SDGs. Co-hosted by ICOM Ireland and the University College Cork, and funded by ICOM, ICOFOM, and the University of St Andrews, it empowered young people, artists, and museum professionals to explore how museums can drive climate action and sustainable development. The event strengthened global partnerships in heritage and sustainability, contributing directly to the UKRI-funded Shared Island Stories and Heritage Intersections: Youth Shaping the Nexus of Culture, Climate, and Community projects, advancing youth-led cultural diplomacy and international collaboration.
