Our main goal is to assist our conference participants in keeping one step ahead to improve their valuable research papers.

SPECIAL FOCUS: The Image as Advocate: Shaping Cultural Conversations
This year's special focus examines how visual media serve as agents of cultural dialogue, activism, and change, particularly within complex and pluralistic societies. Images do more than reflect the world; they intervene in it. Whether mobilised to document injustice, amplify marginalised voices, reframe dominant narratives, or inspire solidarity, images hold or possess the capacity to advocate. As technologies evolve and the circulation of images intensifies, so too does the need to critically assess how they shape public consciousness and cultural meaning. This conference invites an exploration of how visual forms, across analogue, digital, and emerging mediums, operate as tools of advocacy within their own cultural contexts and in dialogue with others, placing an emphasis on practices that are situated, responsive, and ethically engaged. We ask: What are the possibilities and limits of the image as advocate? How does visual advocacy operate across linguistic, societal and cultural thresholds? And what pedagogies, platforms, or ethics are needed to support such work? In gathering diverse voices, we aim to cultivate a conversation on how images not only represent but also actively shape the cultures from which they emerge.

SPECIAL FOCUS: The Future of Museum Narratives
The pluralistic and inclusive positioning of museums pursued through the past two decades of activities by the Inclusive Museum Research Network are reflected in both the updated 'Museum' definition by ICOM (2022) and statements within the comprehensive UNESCO Recommendation on Museums (2015).
The world's constant state of flux is challenging museums to be relevant and reflexive in confronting contemporary realities. Intercultural and intergenerational dialogue are ongoing priorities as we face rising global tensions, escalating climate crisis and deepening social conflicts. Reconciliation and community building must continue to shape museum actions. In 2026, we will meet at the Chau Chak Wing Museum, University of Sydney, addressing many of these global challenges. The context of Sydney aptly provides one of the most culturally and linguistically diverse urban formations in the world.

ABOUT US
Founded in 2008, The Inclusive Museum Research Network is brought together by a shared concern for the future role of the museum and how it can become more inclusive. We seek to build an epistemic community where we can make linkages across disciplinary, geographic, and cultural boundaries. As a Research Network, we are defined by our scope and concerns and motivated to build strategies for action framed by our shared themes and tensions.

RELATED CONFERENCES
We also offer related thematic events in our other Research Networks that you might be able to attend in-person. This way we build for our Research Network Members flexible, and at the same time resilient, spaces for communication, engagement, and participation.
