Dear Friends,
Recently I started to work as a PhD candidate at Utrecht University. I am based in the Department of History and Art History and I am part of the Cultural History research group.
My research project focuses on how European institutions are dealing with the digital turn and what it meant for them and for their visitors. I will analyse the decision-making process involved in the creation and curation of digital heritage, and the nature of the ethical consequences that these decisions have on museums’ narrative.
My research is part of CHEurope project (Critical Heritage Studies and the Future of Europe: Towards an integrated, interdisciplinary and transnational training model in cultural heritage research and management), a PhD training program supported by the European Union under the Marie Sklodowska-Curie actions (MSCA) – Innovative Training Networks (ITN).
It is thanks to my previous experiences if I developed this project and the main research question I am going to investigate, therefore I think this blog is the right place to continue sharing the results of my work. I hope it will be of interest to you as well!
