What terms do we use to describe cultural heritage collections, and in particular, which terms are employed in the metadata of cultural heritage collections? How are minoritised communities represented? Are there any education and training frameworks which support the development of skills and competences around these questions? 

This ENCATC Members Talks, in partnership with CHARTER, the European Cultural Heritage Skills Alliance (Erasmus+ funded) and the DE-BIAS project (funded by the Digital Europe Programme), will provide a space for the projects to discuss the problem of bias in language and its role in creating power imbalances towards minoritised communities.  Join the event for an engaging and practical discussion which will delve into how these initiatives are tackling bias head-on and share actionable strategies for identifying and mitigating bias in your own work.
