Innovating in Environmental Archaeology

How can looking beyond academia benefit one’s own research?

...and what does innovation mean in an archaeological setting?

This event is an opportunity for speakers and attendees to reflect on the skills needed to design and run impactful and engaging projects, the special challenges faced by projects that sit in-between and beyond commercial and academic archaeology, and the partnerships required to develop and sustain them. How can looking beyond academia benefit one’s own research? What does innovation mean in an archaeological setting?

Speakers:

  • Dr Lawrence Shaw (Lead Historic Environment Advisor, Forestry England)
  • Dr Wendy Morrison (Heritage & Archaeology Manager, Chilterns Conservation Board)
  • Charles Le Quesne (Cultural Heritage Consultant, Quercus Heritage)

Although the seminar has been designed with archaeologists and archaeological scientists in mind, any member of the university with an interest in this discussion is welcome to attend.

Organised by Archaeology Partnerships, a Social Sciences ASPECT Innovation Fellowship in collaboration with the Heritage Partnerships Team and the Oxford University Heritage Network (OUHN). Supported by the University of Oxford's ESRC Impact Acceleration Account.
