ANALYSIS

SHARING AT THE BEGINNING


“Ideal would be to work together in writing the project and diving the tasks. The university could do the theoretical part and the museum the implementation”.

MANAGING TIME SCHEDULES

“You need to understand, that problems in the collaboration made me change the topic of the

doctoral thesis, and I had to ask for an additional year to finish my doctorate…

because with all the schedule changes here and there I could not advance in my research”.

TALK FRANKLY


‘if the other museum is not participating, we’re not participating either’.
