A collaboration network that makes a difference
A key factor in the project’s success is collaboration with ICOM Italia’s Marche regional coordination, led by Antonella Nonnis (www.icom-italia.org). The Distori team at UNIVPM has maintained a structured agreement with it for over three years, sustaining a shared programme that connects university research, museum practice and cultural policy at regional and national levels.
