Annual ICOM CECA International Conference
Education Concepts Shaping Museum Realities:
Mission Possible!


For those of you who have not yet applied for the Conference:

ALL THE INFORMATION YOU NEED IS HERE!!!

The CECA Mexico Committee will host, in the ex-convent of Santo Domingo in
Oaxaca, an event that you simply cannot miss, due to:

        *       Its academic importance.

*       It will be an opportunity to know the cutting edge of the thought
and work of the most renowned experts and researchers from all around the
world.

*       It will be a space for  professional exchange and advancement.

*        It will provide the perfect setting for the development of new
ideas.

        *       The program of the Conference will contemplate a wide
variety of interests, as it will include:

        -  Keynote addresses
        - Research and thematic lectures
        - The Marketplace of Ideas, a space created to present, concisely, a
range of the most innovative experiences in the field of education within
the museums of Mexico and overseas.

        *       It is undeniable that museums play a significant role in the
process of education of our societies. Nevertheless, it is time to think
about how education concepts transform, day after day, our work, our
institutions, and our publics.

If you want to update your knowledge about education in museums; if you want
to profit from an occasion to share and learn; if you want to enjoy the
cultural diversity and beauty of the city of Oaxaca, then apply for the
Annual ICOM CECA International Conference 2003!

Take an Active Part in ICOM CECA International Conference, 2003

You can send us your proposals for:

*       Lectures (30+15 min.): which will contribute to professionalize
education services in the museums of Mexico.
*
*       Research Reports Sessions (30+15 min.)*: renowned researchers from
Mexico and abroad present their new findings. These sessions are a window
allowing us to visualize the future perspectives of our work.
*
*       Marketplace of Ideas: With a format of short presentations (10 min.
+ 5 min. for a questions session), they allow us to know a wide variety of
either theoretic-practical projects in progress, or past projects that have
been evaluated in different kinds of museums. Due to the fact that there is
a range of lecturers in a short span, it is possible to get a national  and
international panorama of the state of affairs in our field; these sessions
also make the academic exchange during the meeting lively.
*
*       Workshops: Practical aspects of educational chores are presented, in
order to be discussed and appropriated -techniques, processes, materials,
etc. This is a contribution of the Mexican program. Although the workshops
represent a local exchange of ideas, international participation is strongly
encouraged.
