“My Bosnia and Herzegovina, My Heritage” Workshop

 

LIVNO. A workshop has been held for pupils from Livno’s school in the Gorica Franciscan Museum in Livno, on the subject “My Bosnia and Herzegovina, My Heritage.” This was an educational workshop designed to acquaint the children with what happens in museums, and was attended by about 70 children who were given the opportunity to experience part of the museum process. The children were also able to find out how finds are discovered, excavated, cleared, catalogued and published, and a presentation of the children’s work will later be held at the Gorica Museum in Livno along with a special publication.  The project is being carried out with the support of the US Embassy in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

The development of museum pedagogy

A dark place where some things are kept

A museum is a dark place where some things are kept. This phrase was heard yesterday at the National Museum of Bosnia and Herzegovina to illustrate how most primary school children imagine a museum to be. To change this perception – which they need to be taught from an early age – the first annual conference on the professional development of museum pedagogy, with the title “Towards Linking Pedagogy and Democracy,” has been held in the National Museum of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

The aim of the conference, held by the National Museum in association with the Faculty of the Humanities of the University of Sarajevo, Department of Pedagogy and Chair for the History of Art, and sponsored by the US Embassy in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Office of Culture and Public Affairs in Sarajevo, was not only as described in the introduction to this article but also to provide an experiential and active contribution to the development of the idea of democracy and pedagogy in museums as educational institutions in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Ronald Hawkins, cultural and education attaché at the US Embassy in Bosnia and Herzegovina, welcomed the conference participants, saying that the conference was being held to enhance the quality of education and of the preservation of the cultural heritage. The initiator of the conference was Chicago-based Professor Patrick Roberts (who was unable to attend for health reasons), who has visited many institutions in Bosnia and Herzegovina and noticed that they are not networked, and that they need more dialogue and encounters. Academician Prof. Dr. Adila Pašalić-Kreso, who heads the Department of Pedagogy at the Faculty of Philosophy in Sarajevo, said that the purpose of making use of all public assets for educational purposes is not to create better professionals, but to create better citizens of our homeland and our culture, to present that culture as well as possible, and to appreciate it not individually or on an ethno-national basis but as our common heritage of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Marica Filipović, deputy director of the National Museum of Bosnia and Herzegovina, said that the institution where she works has already been holding workshops over the past few years, which has also attracted visitors.                          An.Š
