This momentous vote served as the culmination of an 18-month participatory process that engaged hundreds of museum professionals from 126 National Committees worldwide. The newly approved definition is as follows:<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cA museum is a not-for-profit, permanent institution in the service of society that researches, collects, conserves, interprets and exhibits tangible and intangible heritage. Open to the public, accessible and inclusive, museums foster diversity and sustainability. They operate and communicate ethically, professionally and with the participation of communities, offering varied experiences for education, enjoyment, reflection and knowledge sharing.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>During the seminar, the official Georgian translation of the New Museum Definition will be introduced. Following the seminar, it will be distributed for implementation to all Georgian museums, as well as to governmental and private entities involved in the museum and heritage field in the country.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/icom-georgia.mini.icom.museum\/en\/seminar-on-the-new-museum-definition\/icom_museum-definition_final-width-2480\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-2242\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-2242\" src=\"https:\/\/icom-georgia.mini.icom.museum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2023\/06\/ICOM_Museum-definition_FINAL.width-2480.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1279\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https:\/\/icom-georgia.mini.icom.museum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2023\/06\/ICOM_Museum-definition_FINAL.width-2480.jpg 1279w, https:\/\/icom-georgia.mini.icom.museum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2023\/06\/ICOM_Museum-definition_FINAL.width-2480-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/icom-georgia.mini.icom.museum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2023\/06\/ICOM_Museum-definition_FINAL.width-2480-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/icom-georgia.mini.icom.museum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2023\/06\/ICOM_Museum-definition_FINAL.width-2480-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/icom-georgia.mini.icom.museum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2023\/06\/ICOM_Museum-definition_FINAL.width-2480-768x769.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1279px) 100vw, 1279px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On July 5th, 2023, Wednesday, at 6 PM GMT+4, ICOM Georgia is organizing an online seminar on the New Museum Definition.
