Coordinated by the CIVIS Museum University Forum in the context of the online event Generating Roadmaps for Research in Museums, this document compiles the research abstracts from Ph.D. students involved.
Generating Roadmaps for Research in Museums was an online gathering designed as a collaborative space for PhD students working on heritage-, museum-, and collection-related topics. Rather than a traditional academic conference, this meeting emphasises peer-to-peer networking, building new connections, and exchanging ideas in a supportive environment.
A select group of professors provided guidance during the event, but the core of this meeting was about learning from each other, clarifying research directions, and developing meaningful discussions.
Through short presentations, interactive discussions, and small-group exchanges, this event aimed to help participants navigate the complexities of museum research, develop their research angles, and gain new perspectives. We hope to create an engaging and comfortable space where PhD students can share insights, offer constructive feedback, and explore potential collaborations.
