The issue of monitoring, measuring and evaluating the impacts of museum and ecomuseum activity is a decisive element in the consolidation and recognition of these institutions in the near future as active players in the social, cultural and environmental dimensions.<\/h3><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The COP16 on Biodiversity in Rome approved a package of 23 indicators (Targets) to measure progress toward the 23 goals of the Global Biodiversity Framework<\/span> in a document called L-26. Conducting monitoring of implemented biodiversity actions<\/span> and measuring progress<\/span> is critical to achieving concrete results and optimizing investments. <\/p>

These indicators are key to assessing the effective implementation of the global framework and monitoring the progress of nations in achieving the goals; they cover ecological, economic, cultural and social dimensions<\/span>, providing an integrated picture. Although developed primarily for large-scale institutional, political and territorial contexts, these indicators can also find application in the cultural context. <\/p>

In particular, with the research project, it was evaluated how museums and ecomuseums, can contribute to the application of a package of indicators, including adapting them to specific missions and practices; and then coming up with a set of key indicators<\/span>, in relation to the COP Targets. In this perspective, museums, as cultural and scientific presidia, not only document biodiversity, but can become actors and actively contribute to the preservation, enhancement, restoration and communication of biodiversity through different lines of action. <\/p>

As part of the project, the role of museums as social agents in governance processes for the sustainable transition of biodiversity and food systems was investigated by mapping ecomuseums and community museums in the Mediterranean, and an index measuring their “Webpage Engagement Capacity”<\/span>was constructed.<\/p>

Adapting COP indicators to the museum context allows museums’ concrete actions to be enhanced and their impact to be measured over time, contributing to participatory monitoring of global goals. This approach promotes a systemic and integrated vision<\/span>, in which biodiversity is not just a scientific issue but a shared responsibility. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

The research conducted by the NBFC mapped the network of ecomuseums and participatory cultural institutions in the Mediterranean area (497), and analyzed the capacity of these institutions to effectively use the Internet as a means to inform and engage the public in their activities. Through the construction of an index that measured “Webpage Engagement Capacity” comprising four dimensions: Information, Communication, E-commerce and Functions, the specificities of each institution, such as small size, focus on working with local communities and participatory practices, were considered. <\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
