collections policy

'Konzept' can be many things in English including 'philosophy' 'plan' 'strategy' or is sometimes best left out. Occasionally it can even mean 'concept', but not very often, because this is a much narrower term in English

Here I think the musem's 'policy' is what we're talking about, though conceivably its 'philosophy'. I think you need to use 'collections' or possibly 'acquisitions' for 'Inhalte'

exhibition concept

In this context, the most proper term is this one. There are many examples verifying this. Here's one: "When you work for a museum, you go through a process of presenting your exhibition concept and proposal to an internal committee that reviews and approves all exhibitions."
