It would (1) specify and give additional value to the general goal of Latvia’s museum accreditation system to promote sustainable museum practic- es, (2) raise awareness of the importance of sustainable development in the museum sector in general, especially beyond the priorities of heritage preservation and financial sustainability and (3) promote positive competitiveness among museums committed to sustainable development, serving as a catalyst for broader appraisal of sustainable practices, a driving force for innovation and an incentive for constantly growing cooperation with players from other sectors, such as education, social services, healthcare, ICT, environmental protection and many more for mutual benefit and overall sustainable development.	cache/eistud-28886.pdf	txt/eistud-28886.txt
