NEMO – the Network of European Museum Organisations
NEMO is the European umbrella organisation for national museum networks. It supports museums through policy advocacy, research, and capacity building across the continent. EGMUS and NEMO share a common interest in strengthening the role of museums in Europe through knowledge exchange and strategic data use.
NEMO – the Network of European Museum Organisations – is the European umbrella organisation representing national museum organisations and similar bodies. Founded in 1992, NEMO advocates for the role of museums in Europe and supports their work through policy development, networking, training, and the promotion of best practices. By bringing together museum professionals and stakeholders from across Europe, NEMO strengthens the museum sector and fosters collaboration, innovation, and sustainability.
Potential Synergies between NEMO and EGMUS
NEMO and EGMUS serve complementary roles in the European museum landscape. While NEMO focuses on advocacy, networking, and capacity-building for museums, EGMUS provides comparative statistical data on the museum sector across Europe. A closer collaboration between the two could strengthen evidence-based policy making by combining EGMUS’s robust data with NEMO’s direct connection to museum professionals and national organisations.
