The avenue of this practice were non-governmental arts and museum institutions addressing local, international, and diasporic multigenerational audiences with a diversity of tools ranging from community work, exhibitions, publications, online didactic platforms, and digital activities, thereby politicizing and historicizing cultural and museum work.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Dr Adila La\u00efdi-Hanieh<\/strong> is a Palestinian art historian and the former Director General of the Palestinian Museum (2018-2023.)
