This webinar brings Inclusive Design in Cultural Heritage: Embracing
Sensory Processing and Neurodiversity with Dr. Piper Hutson
<https://www.linkedin.com/company/1703958/admin/feed/posts/>. In an era
where the democratization of access to cultural heritage stands as a pillar
of societal progress, it becomes imperative for institutions to adopt a
framework of inclusivity that transcends traditional boundaries. Dr. Hutson
will delve into the nuances of Inclusive Design within the realm of
cultural heritage, with a focused lens on sensory processing and
neurodiversity. Drawing upon a rich array of interdisciplinary research and
practical applications, this session aims to equip organizations with the
knowledge and tools necessary to reimagine their spaces, exhibitions, and
programs through an inclusive lens. Participants will explore a variety of
strategies and best practices for integrating sensory-friendly experiences
and neurodiverse-friendly approaches into their institutions. This includes
understanding the diverse ways individuals engage with cultural
environments, leveraging technology for enhanced accessibility, and
fostering a culture of empathy and understanding within organizations.

We have invited Amy Adams
<https://www.linkedin.com/company/1703958/admin/feed/posts/>, Collections
Information & Access Manager at the National Museum of the Royal Navy to
share a presentation on the National Museum of the Royal Navy’s early foray
and experiences of applying different AI technologies in collections
management practices. It will follow why the National Museum was initially
interested in the technology and its vision for how it could revolutionise
collections work to early conclusions on whether it is really all worth it
or just a waste of time. Along the way, the different technologies the
National Museum has so far trialed, and future upcoming trials will be
discussed along with some initial findings.

Participants will hear about the National Museum’s perspective on questions
like:

Will AI revolutionise collections work?
Will it replace me as a Curator?
Is it at all ethical?

They will also learn tips and tricks for getting started themselves if they
are interested but don’t know where to start, and reassure it may not all
be as scary as it seems.
