EU-LAC-MUSEUMS international advisors
The organisational structure of the EU-LAC-MUSEUMS project consists of the project coordinator, an Advisory Board, a Steering Committee, and individual work package leaders within participating countries. All partners are employed within research-intensive universities, museums, and policy- making bodies, ensuring ample opportunity for exchange and dissemination of research findings within a vibrant EU-LAC research climate.
The project Advisory Board consists of word-leading experts in EU-LAC relations in world culture and heritage, selected for their distinct areas of expertise. The role of the Advisory Board is to make comments on the running of the project, and to make recommendations on its direction on a punctual basis. In addition, they will partake in project symposia and provide keynote talks as invited.
