'Sedimented Histories' and 'Embodied Legacies': Creating an Evaluative Framework for Engaging the Public in the First World War

Allwork, Larissa

Abstract

This working paper chronicles the development of the construction of a methodological framework for the evaluation of the impact of the Centre for Hidden Histories, one of the AHRC’s First World War Engagement Centres. It will show how through evaluative processes such as academic and community partner ‘Shared Experience Workshops’, and community focused ‘Reflection Workshops’, the historical, social, cultural and economic ‘impact’ of the centre has been highlighted. It will also demonstrate how engagement in these community history projects has resulted in the identification of ‘sedimented histories’ (Lloyd and Moore) and ‘embodied legacies’ (Facer and Enright).
