Citizen Participation in Co-constructing Narratives on European Heritage
Dr. Nicole Basaraba is a postdoctoral researcher at Studio Europa Maastricht, Maastricht University.
This lecture will introduce the advantages and challenges of citizen participation in the co-construction of European heritage. The concept of “public history” will be introduced and its impact on the sharing of authority between subject-matter experts (i.e., historians) and citizens. The common methods used to gather citizen contributions to heritage making, including crowdsourcing, will be presented. The results of these participatory methods will be contextualised within examples of digital humanities projects (e.g., Europe’s Time Machine) and digital storytelling formats. Some popular genres used for the presentation of heritage narratives include virtual museum exhibitions, mobile applications, and interactive web documentaries.
