Rees will share how ICOM is leading the charge in making museums and culture part of the UN's Agenda 2030 for Sustainable
Development. Plus, he’ll highlight an inspiring exhibition of Sámi artist Britta Marakatt-Labba at the Norwegian National
Museum, showing how indigenous perspectives on climate and environment are shaping the future of museums and sustainability.
