Heritage Legacies

The Heritage Legacies project was funded from 2014-15 by the Arts and Humanities Research Council. The project worked with a number of participants concerned with a range of projects related to the themes of heritage, community-led research, co-production between communities and institutions and the outcomes – legacies – of those projects. The aim was to better understand how and when such co-production works best and to highlight those approaches for future use.
