In an effort to promote the cultural participation of all communities, the National Palace Museum has been reaching out since 1973 to work with schools and cultural institutions in remote areas, correctional facilities, medical institutions, and social services to run touring exhibitions that incorporate elements of local cultures. Since 2008, the Museum has been running a program offering multi-sensory experiences and learning resources to students with special needs, the visually impaired, the hearing impaired, and people with physical disabilities. In 2015, the Museum also launched the Art Care Project to transform ancient artifacts in its collection and connect them with real people’s experiences. The project has made museum collections more accessible to the disabled, the elderly, victims of domestic abuse, military veterans, and the mentally ill. The project also included a series of public events promoting cultural equity and social justice.
