IWM works in partnership with local, national and international organisations to deliver our shared strategic aims more effectively, and with greater impact. Through mutual partnerships we support the work of the wider cultural sector, reach new audiences, and develop our collections, ensuring they are shared with the world.
In 2020 we will publish a new Partnerships Strategy which will outline our ambitious plans for the next five years.

Mapping the centenary
We invite organisations and individuals to tell us about their activity - from websites to events, to learning resources and historical research – to build a searchable database to help us to understand how the centenary was marked and create a lasting legacy for commemorations.

WAR AND CONFLICT SUBJECT SPECIALIST NETWORK
The War and Conflict Subject Specialist Network (SSN) aims to build capacity, connections and confidence in the cultural heritage sector, and is open to not-for-profit organisations and groups who look at stories linked to conflict, from the First World War to the present day.

First World War Centenary
November 2018 saw the culmination of almost ten years of activity to commemorate the centenary of the First World War. Across this decade, IWM brought together thousands of organisations and millions of people across the world to remember the lives of those who fought and died in the conflict.
