Important info:

Due to Covid-19 and to continue the safety of everyone involved, Disrupt and Empower will be a fully online event!

For our international audiences: IGLAM: Disrupt&Empower conference will be recorded & available on the website. Pay as you feel with suggested donations. ALL donations will go towards creating Empowerment coaching for minoritised groups in the sector.

Galleries, Libraries and Archives and Museums (GLAM) are not neutral. People from Raciially Diverse, LGBTQIA, Neuro-divergent, disabled and Working Class backgrounds are often overlooked, misrepresented or erased from the sector.

Well not anymore!

#IGLAM2020 is a grassroots conference organised to empower everyone within the sector by centering stories and opinions of overlooked and erased peoples.

Speakers from the most impacted groups of misrepresentation and erasure will be running the show.

This includes people of Racially Diverse, LGBTQIA, Neuro-divergent, disabled and Working Class backgrounds. Their professional and personal experience give you the tools to empower yourselves to create space for overlooked groups.

Come along and help me create a ruckus leading to a real, dependable, and intersectional GLAM.
