International Museum Day 2022 The Power of Museums
The power of innovating on digitalisation and accessibility: Museums have become innovative playing-grounds where new technologies can be developed and applied to everyday life. Digital innovation can make museums more accessible and engaging, helping audiences understand complex and nuanced concepts.
The International Museum Day (IMD) on 18 May is an event organized by the International Council of Museums since 1977 to raise awareness that “museums are an important means of cultural exchange, enrichment of cultures and development of mutual understanding, cooperation and peace among peoples.” ICOM
Culture knows no borders
This is the first year that Wikimedia Community Malta will be organising and take part in the International Museum Day. For several years, the event has been an occasion for Wikipedians to improve the presence of museums on Wikipedia, Wikidata and further Wikimedia projects. This day event will help to improve the data about museums and related people. The overall project is coordinated by Wikimedia CH (WMCH) in association with Wikimedia Österreich (WMAT) and with direct support by Wikimedia Deutschland (WMDE) and the Volunteer Supporters Network (VSN).Wikimedia IMD
