Building on History Phase 2

As part of the second phase of Building on History we worked in collaboration with Dr Ana Souto (Senior Lecturer in Architecture) and Dr Penelope Siebert (Senior Lecturer in Public Health) from Nottingham Trent University to enable communities in Nottingham to explore their heritage in four workshops. Funded student internships at NTU supported the co-creation of workshops with Mojatu Foundation, Angolan Women Association and Caribbean/Windrush communities in Nottingham alongside community connectors Paula Pontes and Clive Foster. A website is in development to showcase the outcomes of these workshops including the heritage these community groups. You can look at a preview of this website below:

building on history

a digital toolkit for communities

MENU

How to use this digital toolkit:

1. On the start page of the toolkit there are pictures of lots of different types of heritage. Click on the one that feels closest to the heritage you would like to celebrate.

2. Once you have clicked on your type of heritage, the page will describe this kind of heritage and include some pictures. If you think this is not the right type of heritage click the go home button to return to your options.

3. Read through the page. At the bottom there will be some links to other pages or other websites to help you celebrate your heritage. Either follow these to another website or to another page in the toolkit which will give you more information.

You can always ask your facilitator to help if you are struggling.
