Description
The cultural field is experiencing deep changes; nowadays, cultural heritage managers
are strongly encouraged to pay attention in particular to two macro-trends:
sustainability, in a broad sense, and technological innovation.
Financial crises led, above all in Europe, to a progressive reduction of public funds and a
greater participation of private companies in contributions and sponsorships. In addition
to the economic aspects, cultural institutions are reconsidering their role and are
wondering how to define, measure and communicate their cultural and social value.
On the other hand, because of the digital revolution decision makers and museums staff
has to face some challenges:
- The definition of a technological strategy consistent with the mission of the institution;
- The definition of priorities in accordance with the available resources and the
verification of expected impacts;
- The building of a long-term path that is able to "engage" stakeholders with new
languages without sacrificing the cultural aims of the institution.
In this context, the cultural manager is more than ever at the centre of a
transformation that offers opportunities and risks, and he needs to combine the
heritage conservation and enhancement with new technologies and an ever-widening
network of stakeholders.
