Our Promising Practices are offered in the spirit of hope fueled by action. These Promising Practices represent a breadth of ideas, projects, and practices implemented or planned by a museum or science center in the Caretakers of Wonder network. In that sense, they are similar to case studies, but authored here by the individuals and teams who ideated and developed these sustainable practices across museum departments and areas of work.  

These Promising Practices range from Sustainability Plans (under Leadership + Development), and Purchasing (Operations + Guest Services), to Outdoor Exhibits (Exhibits), and Mindfulness in Early Education Programs.  

A Promising Practice is just that. A report from the team on the frontiers of sustainability in the museum field. An example of a good-faith effort making their organization more sustainable or aligned with the environment and their community’s health.
