@m_ogada led an exciting conversation on conservation. Indeed conservation should be for the people, especially people who treasure the resource as their own heritage. This view I totally concur. However, as we hold that view, I added that, we need to take into contemporary challenges in our thoughts too. I am a proud fellow of this year's @TheMuseumsLab Enriching discussions in this fellowship! – at Kampala, Uganda

The difficult conservations at @TheMuseumsLab are real getting us to imagine museums for the future. Restitution, repatriation of museums artfefacts should be indeed discussed candidly by all, from across the world. @mfnberlin @DAAD_Germany @ugandamuseums @RailwaymuseumUg – at Kampala, Uganda
