Resource: Making Histories, Sharing Histories

The Voices of War & Peace and Everyday Lives WW1 Engagement Centres have now published an open-access research guide to university-community collaboration.

The booklet shows what collaboration might look or feel like, and how heritage can enable diverse communities to tell their own stories of belonging. It focuses on ten activities and, for each activity, an explanation of what happened, the issues that had to be addressed and what was learned by the end of the process. In some cases, participants left a tangible historical record (an output); in others, collaboration generated new relationships and ideas (outcomes).

The booklet is free to download here.
