Recognizing the grave need to curb trafficking of wildlife globally, and natural history museums’ largely untapped ability to contribute to this issue, ICOM NATHIST has collaborated with like-minded institutions to create a framework to facilitate involvement by workers in the field.

National Science Week is celebrated throughout Australia's museums and galleries.

Many of our national and state institutions are at the forefront of research and discovery, are home to locally, nationally and internationally important collections, and hubs for science communication and education for all ages.

Remember to check out your local museums and galleries for Science Week events.
