News 8 October 2019
SISCODE has approximately 17 partners across 13 EU countries. It is a wide and varied project with many partners having their own specific focus. It is a project that has a system of 10 city labs who are all practising co-creation in different settings to provide the project with a better understanding of the drivers and barriers of co-creation. There are also other partners focusing their attention more towards bridging the gap between co-creation and policymaking. It might be difficult to keep up, so we have decided to kick off a View from the Partners.

The Children in Museums Award is a joint venture between Hands On! and the European Museum Academy. It was launched back in 2011 and its aim is to reward the hard work of creative and innovative exhibitions aimed at children up to 14 years old.
Besides the innovation, the judges value the ways the exhibition can change the museum’s practices. That is why they pay special attention to interpretation and presentation.
