BCMA Podcast: Equity and Leadership with Sally Kim

Join our host Lorenda and Sally Kim, Objects Conservator at the Royal BC Museum, for a conversation about accessibility, conservation, relationship-building, and repatriation. Sally reflects on her experiences as a deaf museum professional and explores how museums can move beyond accommodation toward meaningful accessibility grounded in listening, transparency, universal design, and disability justice. Consider how collaboration, cultural knowledge, and human connection can reshape conservation practice and create more welcoming, equitable, and responsive museums.
