The scope of the collections policy at the Palestinian Museum is based on its dual role as a cultural institution that conducts exhibitions and develops public educational programmes, and as a supporter of research. The museum plays this role in part by collecting, conserving, curating, and exhibiting themed materials related to Palestinian history, culture, and social and political life. Therefore, the museum has adopted a special policy for the management of its collections, which includes an entire chapter on its acquisition policy, which delineates its priorities in the process of collecting materials and objects to be included in its permanent collection. This policy is reviewed and developed periodically on an ongoing basis. Policy in Arabic
