Chief Project

The CHIEF (Cultural Heritage and Identities) project is about gaining insights on young people’s learning and engagement with culture and cultural heritage. Drawing on youth voices and working collaboratively with a range of actors, community groups and institutions, we aim to build up and put forward more relevant and inclusive approaches to culture, participation and diversity. The project aims to understand: a-how young people make sense and engage with different aspects of culture and identity; b-whether and how their involvement with different cultural practices leads to an increased understanding of their own and others’ cultures; c- whether and how the above help young people’s active cultural participation in society.
The focus is on young people aged between 14-25.The research is carried-out in formal, semi-formal and informal settings.
