Nuclear Cultural Heritage: from Knowledge to Practice

This AHRC-funded network, led by PI Professor Egle Rindzeviciute, focused on the emerging field of nuclear cultural heritage and aimed to build international networks of industry, academics and museum and heritage practitioners to investigate the challenges of defining, preserving and regulating nuclear cultural heritage, and to produce guidelines for museums.

This project was funded by an AHRC Network Grant, AH/S001301/1 and produced two papers: Nuclear Cultural Heritage Position Paper 2019 and Final Report: Nuclear Cultural Heritage 2022. The academic steering and advisory board included: Robert Bud, Science Museum; Rodney Harrison, University College London; Sandra Kemp, The Ruskin, Lancaster University; Penelope Harvey, University of Manchester; Jeffrey Hughes, University of Manchester; Susan Molyneux-Hodgson, Exeter University; and Andrew Stirling, Sussex University.
