Archaeology with the community!

Hand with treasure

Archaeology with the community!
There is a new Research Centre for Applied Archaeology at the University of Salford (but based in the CUBE building on Portland Street in Manchester).

The work of the Centre includes involving people from local communities, helping them to learn more about the history of their locality, and the chance to be trained in archaeological techniques. This might also be an interesting way to encourage both physical activity and learning!

If any local community group or school wants to know more, or become involved in digging up the past, they should contact:

Mike Nevell (Head of Archaeology) m.d.nevell@salford.ac.uk or Brian Grimsditch (Community Archaeologist) b.grimsditch@salford.ac.uk

Smart City Futures

Time of Event: 
23/07/2009 09:00 - 18:23

Smart City Futures will begin new conversations that tap into the
unrealised potential of open innovation and effective collaboration
between Universities, Industry and Government

A lack of transparency and a silo mentality had resulted in an environmental, political and economic meltdown. 

Old models and accepted truths are becoming irrelevant and outmoded in a changing and connected world

New challenges call for new solutions

We
believe that Universities should act as a catalyst of change and have
decided to practice what we preach by trying something new
