A collective call to action, DCDC25 was held Durham and online on Pheedloop 29-31 July 2025. The conference invited delegates to come together, no matter where in the world or the stage of their career, to Choose Your Own Future: to celebrate what is already being achieved and debate what more could be done, to explore the challenges we face across the GLAMA sector and to work together as a community to find sustainable solutions.

How do we embrace the opportunities that technologies bring to upskill, to inform our practice, enhance access to our collections or transform visitor experiences?  How can we better understand our audiences, and in what ways can we continue to collaborate with communities to ensure their voices are heard and their needs are met?  From knowledge sharing to collaboration opportunities across all sizes of organisation, how can we work together to affect change for good?
