Study day

Study day

Providing the opportunity for children and young people to learn about architecture is one of the Palladio Museum's principal aims. This means presenting Palladio's legacy as part of a collective identity, as a tool for social cohesion, and as a stimulus to thinking about the past and understanding the present.
The central theme in this second study day is education and it will be approached from two different points of view: first, by highlighting the importance of the educational function of museums in general (as recommended, for example, by ICOM Italy, 2013) and, second, by analysing the specific role of exploring architecture as a means to well-being, inclusion and democracy.
The creators of some of the best architecture education programmes in Italy, Germany, England, Turkey and Colombia will sit round the same table to exchange views and share experiences, projects and results.

The study day is addressed to all, including museum professionals, education administrators, architects, university students, teachers from schools of all levels, and members of associations and community groups both locally and nationally.
