MOI! Museums of Impact
- What opportunities does the surrounding society offer for the museum and its services?
- What kind of impact does the museum seek to have on its communities?
- Is the museum allowing the environment to impact its own operations?
- How can the museum take control of its impact?
- For whom and with whom are the services planned and carried out in order to achieve the intended impacts?
- How are the museum’s resources put into active use to improve the impact of operations and services?
- What kind of operating culture and working practices enables the museum to have an impact?
- Is it possible to achieve the desired impacts through the museum’s current services?
