HISTORIC HOUSE MUSEUMS AND THEMATIC INDICATORS FOR CULTURE IN THE 2030 AGENDA.

The paper presents the nuanced role of culture in the sustainable development agenda of the United Nations, highlighting the contribution of House Museums in all the World. Museums are increasingly aware of the need to become more sustainable. To this end, many museums are already doing some green work and green thinking, thus contributing to the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDG's) and to creating a sustainable future. Government and funding bodies are increasingly demanding environmental assessment. As agents of social responsibility we are expected more and more to deal with the results of environmental change such as flooding and drought, and to fulfil our role as a forum for public debate. We believe that despite the Covid-19 Pandemic and its devastating effect on personal, public, political, economic and cultural life over this past year it is important to also keep looking beyond it. Sustainability remains even more relevant for the future of society and museums alike. The research presents the results about an open call for museums and museum professionals, to have an important role to play in building a more peaceful, equal, and sustainable future. Best practices on sustainability address these issues, examine the challenges, inspire examples and show that a lot is possible. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
