Blind engagement accessible museum projects
BEAM UP is a project born to help museums to move from the production of services for the blind to the production of services done together with the blind in the field of contemporary art.
The project foresees the activation of three local mixed working groups, in Italy, Croatia and Ireland, composed of museum professionals, the blind and visual disability experts. Working together for two and a half years they will study the design, planning, organisation and realisation of accessibility actions.
They are starting from a bottom up approach that will hopefully provide visually impaired people with more effective solutions, because they will be developed with the direct participation of the final users. Local practices will be compared, help and advice will be given, and scientifically validated by an international group of experts. BEAM UP priorities are the promotion of proactive audience development and the improvement of skills and competences of the cultural operators all over Europe.
