A MiBACT platform will bring together all Italian museums. Hosanna: 2021 year of great challenge.

Director General of Museums Massimo Osanna announced at the opening of Ro.Me, the international fair dedicated to museums, exhibitions and cultural work, which this year is being held entirely digitally from November 25-27, a MiBACT platform that will bring together all Italian museums.
A project that MiBACT is working on with the collaboration of local authorities as well, for a total of "almost 5 thousand realities, which will soon be able to count on a common digital environment."

Osanna stresses that this in fact is a way to make the Italian museum reality more recognizable to the outside world, but also a square of sharing, of exchange, which will allow, for example, to standardize guidelines, to work on common quality standards, for a system “that is increasingly inclusive and shared.” As for the expected timeframe, the director general says that "it is ripe. 2021 will be a year of great challenge because we hope to get out of the pandemic soon and we expect a huge boom, a huge renewed demand for culture. A huge challenge because when we can reopen museums we have to do it in a new way, with new awareness of our heritage. To make the experience of these months bear fruit, which means ferrying our museums into the future," he concluded.

He also pointed out that the Ministry has already been at work for years ondigital innovation: “as early as August 2019 a three-year plan for digital innovation was launched, but since March 2020 this process has been forcefully accelerated by events involving a bit of everyone, even the smaller and less prepared museums.”
