Museum Forward highlights the broader social and cultural roles of Indonesia’s historic sites and collections while identifying new ways to present cultural heritage through global visions, best practices, and international standards.

What will you get?
Museum Forward will select three (3) proposals from local Indonesian museums to receive support grants (each) up to EUR 4,000 (Four Thousand Euros). The grant is meant to realize a project adhering to the criteria, whether to fully subsidize a new project or as an additional support to fund an ongoing existing project by the museum.
The selected museums and collaborators will also get the insight and learnings from the international experts: established museum specialists and curators, art historians, anthropologists, educators, cultural public relations, creative economy entrepreneurs, that are recommended by EUNIC members.
