The Museum of the Ionian University, following its efforts to create a climate that encourages dialogue between communities and to maintain contact with museums in general, continues for the second year the series of lectures, under the title, " Discussions for the Museum 2022-2023". The program begins in November 2022 and will run through May 2023, with one guest each month. The guests, experts in museums and heritage management, will discuss issues related to the sustainability of museum institutions, the design of participatory actions, the influence of museums on social change, and the cultivation of positive psychology through their operation.
