The Cambio project created a framework for museums to think about engaging more effectively with communities, especially those who have been marginalized or underrepresented in the museum’s audience. Developed with a focus on helping museums become more relevant, responsive, and sustaining to Latinx communities, the framework is designed to encourage museum professionals to think about six areas that they might strengthen and build from in this work. Focused on creating more equitable and inclusive museum environments for both visitors and staff, the Spokes framework also incorporates the three strands of Cambio.
While developed with Latinx communities in mind, the Spokes framework is relevant for many different communities museums might want to engage with, especially those who have been marginalized.
