Building a Safe, Academic, Digital, and Dynamic Museum

In 2019, the Palace Museum introduced the idea of building a "safe, academic, digital, and dynamic museum". A "safe museum" is the foundation, an "academic museum" is the core, a "digital museum" is the guarantee, and a "dynamic museum" is the ultimate pursuit. Currently, the Palace Museum is working to turn the idea into reality in an orderly and coordinated manner, which represents the specific path to realize its mission and vision.

Building a "safe museum" refers to ensuring the security of the cultural heritage site, collection, and visitors in the museum through administrative and technological means.

Building an "academic museum" refers to fostering academic exchange platforms, academic research teams and academic results publishing channels to attract both Chinese and foreign experts to jointly lift the museum's academic research to a higher level.

Building a "digital museum" refers to achieving permanent preservation and sustained inheritance of relic resources through usage of digital technology and management of digital resources.

Building a "dynamic museum" refers to putting a modern face and fresh perspectives on fine traditional Chinese culture by creatively exploring the cultural value of relics and transforming them into public cultural and educational resources through exhibitions, cultural and creative products, and new media content.
