For twenty-five years, the International Coalition of Sites of Conscience has helped museums, historic sites and other public spaces become dynamic centers for community engagement through training solutions grounded in the world of thought leaders, educators, and human rights advocates around the world. As one participant in a recent training put it, ICSC training supports sites to “enhance both visitors’ appreciation of the history and encourage personal connections which may allow for a constructive shift in people’s own perspectives.”
To support these services, ICSC is excited to be offering several virtual and in-person open-seat learning opportunities. These sessions are open to non-members, but special discounts are offered for staff at ICSC member organizations and students.

Creating with Communities– October 29th – 31st, 2024; 10am – 12pm EST
Dialogue in Difficult Times – February 4th – 6th, 2025; 10am – 12pm EST
