Study visits are meant to unite to the theoretical teachings of the Congress with a practical side, made of concrete examples and best practices that participants can get to know in first person. From museums pushing to decolonize themselves to efforts to make transnational cooperation among artists possible, here are details of the different realities you can visit on Day 3 of the Congress.
Study Visit 1 – Royal Museum for Central Africa
About the AfricaMuseum: The AfricaMuseum is a centre for knowledge and resources on Africa, in particular Central Africa, in an historical, contemporary, and global context. The museum exhibits unique collections. It is a place of memory on the colonial past and strives to be a dynamic platform for exchanges and dialogues between cultures and generations.

The museum pays tribute to all those who build Brussels. Yesterday, today and tomorrow.

SPOTLIGHT UKRAINE
Study Visit 3 – Holland House in Brussels (Orange Art House)
About the Orange Art House: Orange Art House is not a gallery space, not a white cube. As a physical space, it is used by the members and guests of Holland House Brussels. They move in the different corners and halls, act and leave traces. The concept of ‘new space(s)’ is also a symbol of the interlude created by the corona crisis, in which artists, entrepreneurs, employees, politicians and lobbyists are forced to take a step back. Redefinition of priorities and positions, and the abandonment of well-defined frameworks has become a new reality, taking place at various levels; on a personal and family level, as well as within organisations and companies that focus on social, economic and political themes within the immediate community, as well as on national, European and global contexts.

Workshop – Archive and Museum of Flemish Life in Brussels (AMVB)
About the AMVB: The museum gathers numerous posters, letters, books, brochures, annual reports, printed photographs, documents, printing plates, pictures, slides, written testimonies, newspapers, songs, menus, obituaries, reports, programs, invitations, projects, flags and so on. The aim of the museum is to conserve and educate the visitor about Flemish culture in Brussels. The AMFLB also hosts temporary exhibitions.
ENCATC Members Talk 4: Professional skills and Training curricula design. Learnings from the CHARTER project and the digital strategy of the AMVB museum.
The Members Talk 4 will propose a framework to discuss the adaptation of the training offer to the current and future demands of profiles, competences and professional skills in the field of cultural and heritage management. The framework has been created by the CHARTER project, focused on cultural heritage, but it could be used as well in other cultural fields.
This Members Talk will have several steps. We will start with a site visit at the Archive and Museum of Flemish Life in Brussels, where we will learn about its structure, team, projects and activities. Afterward, we will start the workshop with an introduction and the presentation of the results of an ongoing study on job vacancies to reflect on the new demands for professional profiles. In the second part of the workshop participants will use the CHARTER tools to analyse team competences. Finally we’ll focus on how training programs could adapt to the challenges previously presented.
