Join this live training to learn how to reduce the environmental impact of temporary and touring exhibitions. You’ll discover practical strategies, explore a real-life case study, and gain confidence in making environmentally informed decisions. The training covers all key areas of the Rethinking Touring Exhibitions Toolkit, from partnerships and procurement to transport, design and advocacy, to show you what’s within your sphere of influence and how to take action. This training will support you to be empowered to drive positive change in your organisation and the wider museum sector.
Led by an experienced TEG Trainer, this training will:
- use the Rethinking Touring Exhibitions Toolkit as its basis
- help organisations to reduce the environmental impact of temporary and touring exhibitions
