MUSE, a museum for growing
“Child and adolescents-friendly Museums” project
“Child and adolescents-friendly Museums” project
We feel it is very important to champion and protect the rights of children and adolescents. This is why we are committed to creating programmes and activities for all ages, in line with the sustainable development goals set by the Agenda 2030 and the principles of the UN Convention. Our priorities include the wellbeing and health of adolescents and children and their relationship with their reference adults.
At MUSE you will find suggestions and tools to make the most of your visit, facilities for those with special needs or disabilities, dedicated parking, comfortable spaces reserved for breastfeeding and baby care, baby carriers and child backpacks, pushchairs, changing tables and water dispensers.
Children can discover the museum and experience the Maxi Ooh! area through the senses, cultivating their natural curiosity for discovery. The MUSE hosts meetings with experts, peer-to-peer talks, birth and parenting support meetings, according to the good practice of nurturing care.
We strive to offer healthy natural food in both our vending machines and at the MUSE Café, where you will find a healthy menu that respects the environment. Breastfeeding is welcome throughout the museum.
Children and adolescents are the true protagonists of life in our museum. Involving them in
the planning of activities and assessing the experiences they take part in are an integral, essential part of what we do.
Ecology, biodiversity, landscape, biosciences, diet, health, science and sustainability are our cornerstones. Thanks to a solid network of relationships with local entities, we try to offer activities that tackle issues dear to us.
Everyone working at MUSE is trained to guide children, teenagers and adults and will strive to make your visit an opportunity for growth.
