Inclusive Museums Programme

MDM is offering a small cohort of six museums the opportunity to access specialist expertise and support to embed equity, diversity and inclusion within their organisation’s Strategy and Forward Plan. 

The Inclusive Museums programme will increase museum leaders’ knowledge and confidence in relation to equity, diversity and inclusion (EDI) in the Midlands museum sector.

Through the programme a small cohort of six museums will be supported to develop and implement Equity Action Plans (EAPs) through cohort training, peer networking and 1:1 mentoring.

The programme will be delivered from February 2025-March 2026.

Attend the Information Event at 12.30-1.30pm, Thursday 23 January 2025 to find out more about our upcoming Inclusive Museums programme.
