Transformar el museo desde la acción educativa. Experiencias desarrolladas en la Rede Museística Provincial de Lugo

Introduction: In line with social museology, the Rede Museística Provincial de Lugo (RMPL) is a benchmark for how to make an institution accessible, inclusive, inclusive, egalitarian and sustainable. Its adaptation to social needs is manifested in a repertoire of educational experiences that work on inequality, territory and functional diversity. This educational model designed for social transformation arises and is reviewed under the protection of its XXII Xornadas Pedagóxicas. The main objective is to analyse these meetings in order to understand the community complicity that the Network has managed to create in its environment, not only in the educational field, but also with organised groups. Method: The data collection includes existing information on several editions of the Pedagogical Days, and two interviews with people involved in their coordination and organisation. The analysis of these sources makes it possible to (1) identify the themes dealt with in the conferences, (2) reflect on the extent to which the museum has responded to the needs of society and teachers through these meetings, and (3) assess the implications of the conferences for the improvement of educational action between museum and school. Results: For more than 25 years the RMPL has been holding Xornadas Pedagóxicas (Pedagogical Conferences) aimed at pre-school, primary and secondary school teachers. In the first stage, they were focused on making teachers aware of experiences, resources and new themes that could be incorporated into the classroom. Throughout these years it has consolidated a long educational work committed to the intersectionality of inequalities from a conception of social museum; situated in its context, capable of involving the community and strengthening the feeling of belonging. Conclusions: The Rede Museística Provincial de Lugo has been generating alliances with the educational community, in which the Xornadas Pedagóxicas are a crucial element for knowledge, innovation and transfer of experiences. To this end, an open perspective has been relevant, networking with other agents such as museums in Galicia and the rest of Spain, universities and social groups of various kinds.
