Abstract:

Museum work can be rewarding, but also challenging. We know this from research, and likely personal experience too. This was the case before the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the situation has certainly not improved since. For emergent professionals in the museum field, the usual stress that comes with starting a career is amplified by a problematic work environment. ​This toolkit is designed for emerging museum professionals (EMPs). ​This toolkit aims to share information and resources that will help emerging museum professionals to focus on and maintain positive wellbeing in their work.
