The first “Meet, See, Do – LAB” will take place on Monday, 20th of May 2019, in the History Museum of Bosnia and Herzegovina in Sarajevo (duration of the event is from 09-17 hours). MSD LAB will offer three hands-on workshops that will be run by international experts from Oslo Jewish Museum, POLIN Museum of the History of Polish Jewish and the National Holocaust Museum in Amsterdam. The workshops will allow participants to learn about best practice examples and the methodology that has been used, which is often low-tech and realized with limited resources. Each workshop will address a different target group of formal and informal museum learning programme.
On the first MSD LAB participants will have the opportunity to hear from Ms. Lucja Koch who comes from POLIN Museum of the History of Polish Jewish about how their museum combines historical education with civic and anti-discriminatory education and how educational programmes of museum have been developed.
