Our unique cross-fertilisation of research from the humanities and sciences from areas such as archaeology, architecture and sociology means we can use the lessons from history to solve the problems of today.
Through traditional archival and oral histories as well as cutting-edge archaeological research, our academics and researchers are extending the boundaries of existing knowledge and redefining what we understand by ‘heritage’. Our use of digital tools and archives is broadening research of, and engagement with, a range of subjects across our research centres and institutes.
Our heritage researchers also form partnerships with regional organisations that help shape public policy, education and sustainable tourism strategies in Liverpool and beyond.
