The last years have shown that museums all over the world are facing an increasing number of challenges. Climate change, globalization, and questions of identity are forcing institutions to change traditional ways of operating. ICOMON announced that this year’s conference will be held at Bank of Negara Museum & Art Gallery Malaysia from 16-18th November 2023.

The conference will explore new techniques in the fields of digital technology, display and exhibitions, as well as publications in money and banking museums. Presentations are encouraged that address issues that curators and managers of collections encounter in this changing world. The theme of the conference is:

“Reinforcing Museum’s sustainable competitiveness in the peak of digitization & social/global challenges”

ICOMON members and others interested in Bank or Money Museums as well as exhibition techniques are invited to present proposals for papers. The event is open to anyone interested, and registration will open in October.

Deadline for Abstract Submission: 30th August 2023

Notification of Abstract Acceptance: 15th September 2023
