We live in uncertain times characterised by deep anxiety over issues ranging from geo-political instability and climate catastrophe to the cost of living and intolerance of difference. Work is increasingly precarious and the future of long-standing institutions no longer seems secure.
This three-day conference will explore the vital role that public history can play in such challenging times, deepening and widening engagement with diverse histories, addressing pressing societal issues and advancing inclusion, well-being and social justice.
Keynote Speakers:
Professor Ludmilla Jordanova (Durham University), Keith Jeffery Lecture in Public History
Dr Amy King (Bristol University)
Professor Jasmine Alinder (University of California, Santa Cruz)
