Consulting and Advising

I can consult or advise on ethical issues such as:

• Drafting an institutional code of ethics, vision statement or other policy document
• Museum transparency
• Curating difficult issues
• Censorship and self-censorship
• Deaccession/disposal
• Repatriation and shared guardianship of collections
• Diversity, equality and inclusion
• Ethics of participation
• Sponsorship
• Sustainability

Through reflective exercises, I facilitate the constructive identification and analysis of ethical issues, leading to deliberative decision-making, among small and large teams. Facilitation can be one-off or a series of activities which can take the form of:

• Workshops
• Seminars
• Field trips
• Partnership building
• Individual and small group discussion

My consulting/advising supports practitioners and researchers to find the clarity necessary to make difficult ethical decisions and also promotes the development of robust processes that empower participants to recognize their own agency in examining the ethical issues that they face in their day-to-day work.
