The Association of European Open-Air Museums (AEOM) is holding its bi-annual assembly and conference in the open-air museum in Szentendre, near Budapest, between August 19 and 22.
The conference is part of the cultural events organised within the framework of Hungary’s presidency of the European Council, organisers said.
The conference is expected to draw nearly 100 delegates from 40 institutions of 22 countries, including European countries, Australia, the US and Japan.

The conference this year is focusing on open-air museums’ ways to present and help work through historic and social trauma such as wars, the resettlement of ethnic groups, ethnic discrimination, migration and generational trauma, or the re-integration of groups on the periphery of society, organisers said.
The conference is also working to draft a sustainability action plan and a Code of Conduct, organisers said.
