Conference Theme: Cross-Organization Collaborations
Within the field of banking and money museums and numismatic departments, a wide range of collaborations are possible when dealing with numismatics, financial literacy, monetary and economic history, collections management and exhibitions.
In the ICOMON conference 2024 presenters will consider ways that different specialists and stewards can teach and learn from one another to better the discipline and the ways that we work, and what unites the multiplicity of specializations and the willingness to collaborate and learn from one another. Case studies related to the theme Cross-Organization Collaborations will be presented regarding:
- How can cross-organization collaborations strengthen the outreach to a wider community? For example, universities, museums, museum networks, associations, banks, public authorities and financial institutions often share common interests.
- How can a historic numismatic perspective reach beyond the museums and numismatic world?
- Digitization and digital medias: for whom, by whom, why and how? How does it help with pedagogy and teaching?
- How can we better safeguard the collections?
The conference is supported by the Swedish Numismatic Association and the Gunnar Ekström Foundation for Numismatics.
