ICOM has established a new International Committee dedicated to Collections in Storage: ICOM STORAGE. This important step reflects the growing recognition of the essential role that museum storages play in the preservation, study, and accessibility of cultural heritage.
International Museum Day 2025, themed "The Future of Museums in Rapidly Changing Communities," will be celebrated on May 18th. This event emphasises museums' roles in fostering resilience, innovation, and inclusivity, aligning with the UN's Sustainable Development Goals and promoting social progress.
The International Council of Museums (ICOM) is an international organisation of museums and museum professionals which is committed to the research, conservation, continuation and communication to society of the world’s natural and cultural heritage, present and future, tangible and intangible. As a network of experts, comprising over 57 000 professionals in 129 countries and territories, ICOM makes recommendations on issues related to cultural heritage, promotes capacity building and advances knowledge. ICOM is the voice of museum professionals on an international stage and raises public cultural awareness through global networks and co-operation programmes.
