Telling Difficult Histories, Advancing Human Rights
Dr. Danielle Megaffin Consulting partners with museums, memorials, and cultural institutions around the world to tell difficult histories with honesty, care, and ethical rigour. Led by Dr. Danielle Megaffin, the practice specializes in histories of mass atrocity and genocide, and in human rights stories including immigration, refuge, and displacement. These are the stories institutions most need to tell, and the ones hardest to tell well.
Services span the full life of an exhibition: developing new exhibits from the ground up, surfacing untold stories already hidden in your collection, and shaping interpretation that honours survivors and engages visitors without sensationalizing harm. The practice also works alongside museum teams on decolonial practice, examining inherited colonial structures, building staff capacity, and creating institutions where communities see themselves treated with dignity.
Whether you're planning a new gallery or rethinking a longstanding one, the goal is the same: memory work that moves people to understanding, and institutions toward justice.
