Welcome. This is a place to explore intersection between museums and climate change. The MCC Network was started as a response to the urgent need to engage a broad public in the issues of climate change and the Anthropocene, the Age of Humans. Museums are trusted sources of knowledge, valuable sites for gathering, creating and sharing powerful stories. They are places that enable audiences to slow down and reflect – all important for reaching the goal of engaging hearts and minds. As more museums step into considering past, current and future challenges, more outreach, education, exhibitions, and multimedia resources are being created. The insights, ideas and inspiration that spring from these experiences are important to share. This is why we are here.
