Workshop: ‘Cultural Heritage Communities: Technologies and Challenges’

In the workshop the meSch team will explore the role of technology supporting and mediating cultural heritage practices for both professional communities (cultural heritage professionals, heritage institutions, etc.) and civic communities (citizen-led heritage initiatives, heritage volunteers, personal and community identified heritage, heritage crowdsourcing, etc.). The workshop will discuss challenges and future opportunities for technology use and for design and participatory processes in the context of various heritage communities, and the role of different stakeholders. The workshop will take place as part of the Communities & Technologies 2015 international conference in Limerick (Ireland) and will run over 1 day on Sunday, 28th of June 2015.

Workshop Venue: Engineering Research Building, University of Limerick (map and directions here and here)
