The diverse portfolio of cross-sectoral, boundary-pushing projects has grown from a strong pool of applicants who were all involved in the Mindsets + Missions learning programme run in early 2023.
Led by The Liminal Space, participants from throughout the UK explored the central tenets of the Mindsets + Missions programme, developed partnerships and collaborations, and enhanced their practice and approach to research and innovation.
You can now read the learning insights report from The Liminal Space to find out more about the Mindsets + Missions learning programme.
Moving to the programme’s next phase of supporting projects and continuing to bring together a cross-sectoral cohort of practitioners, researchers and experts by lived experience, Mindsets + Missions aims to:
- Explore new and evidenced ways to engage underrepresented groups with research and innovation.
- Champion and inspire bold and creative practices in the museums and science centre sectors.
- Create resources and tools to support museums and science centres in this work.
- Share learning with the wider sector, including researchers, engagement practitioners and funders.
"Having worked with the grantees on the Mindsets + Missions learning programme, we’re really excited to see these original new voices deliver an incredible diversity of brave and bold projects. We’re certain their work will inspire others within the museums and science centre sectors to embed positive change."
Sarah Douglas, founding director, The Liminal Space
