The mission of the musée du quai Branly-Jacques Chirac is, on the one hand, to conduct research on and around the collections it houses and, on the other, to develop research on contemporary issues in the fields it covers. With this in mind, the research carried out by the Research and Teaching Department will be structured along three lines. The many and varied research projects carried out by the museum fall within the fields of anthropology, history and art history, without excluding other themes:
- Diversity of aesthetics and forms of creativity
- Museums, heritage, cultures and identities
- Colonial heritage: reappropriation, claims, sharing
