The future of culture is sustainable. It has to be - otherwise it won't exist. As cultural organisations and professionals start to connect their jobs to climate and social issues, we are becoming more concerned with things such as digital carbon footprints, accessibility and inclusion.
In this session Caitlin Southwick, Executive Director at Ki Culture, will explore questions such as how do we best preserve our heritage and our planet? How can we make sure our heritage is globally accessible in an equitable way? How do we become relevant and position ourselves as leaders for a sustainable future?
Culture holds the key to connecting the past with the future. Through understanding what sustainability means in a holistic sense and integrating technology and innovation into heritage, the future of culture is ours to create.
As Collections Engagement Manager at Europeana, Douglas supports Europeana’s mission by working with partner institutions to showcase their collections to online audiences. A key element of his work is developing Europeana’s thematic collections, especially on art and photography, to give users access to relevant and high-quality content from the corpus. Douglas's activities include editorial development, content curation and publication, in collaboration with Europeana's network of cultural heritage institutions. Variously as author, editor and producer, Douglas has been involved in the online exhibitions 'Visions of War' (2018), 'An Ecstasy of Beauty' (2017) in partnership with the Finnish National Gallery, 'Art Nouveau: A Universal Style' (2017), 'The Colossus of Leonardo da Vinci' (2016) with Museo Galileo, Florence, and 'Faces of Europe' (2016), a survey of European art from the medieval era to the present day, featured over 100 artworks from 28 countries.

Linked (Open) Data, Digital Collections Management & Digitization
About me
My interest in history has been fueled since I got more in touch with heritage. Cultural institutions have a wealth of information stored in archives. Their valuable collections are patiently waiting to be viewed. I am thrilled to contribute to making this available to the world.
I am involved with digitization, collections management systems, crowdsourcing and making collections accessible to the (global) public. Personally I have interest in the latest developments in regards to collections management; specifically Linked (Open) Data, IIIF, SPARQL and new registration standards like Records In Context.
I'm attending Europeana 2022 to meet like-minded people who want to leverage the latest technologies in collections management. I'd be happy to share thoughts on developments in regards to linking collections, data and sources.
Let's have a chat at Europeana in person, or connect with me on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/martijn-roelofs/
