Nice to get round to publishing this blog on my recent trip to Huddersfield for the IWM War and Conflict Specialist Subject Network study visit on representing traumatic histories: hiddenhistorieswwi.ac.uk/uncategorized/…

NEW! .@LarissaAllwork presents a framework for understanding public engagement with #WW1 & argues that these evaluative lessons could inform the national centenary of #WW2 .D/L #openaccess article here. #ResearchForAll @IOE_Press @Hidden_Hist @DerbyUni ingentaconnect.com/content/ioep/r…

Looking forward to new reading: given to me courtesy of David Savill at the great Age Exchange. A history of the organisation @CombatStress by Rachel Duffett

Stimulating discussions today about what best practice looks like in addressing traumatic histories. Pleased to present mine and @NigelCHunt workshop on trauma and the FWW to great practitioner audience from @I_W_M @HistoricEngland @ageexchange @Holocaust_Hud

2nd day of IWM war and conflict SSN. Great to meet the exhibition team and hear about the survivor stories that make up @Holocaust_Hud exhibition (which is very much worth visiting). Fascinating to listen to the plans for the new Holocaust galleries @I_W_M.

Thoughtful discussions at today’s @I_W_M War and Conflict SSN workshop on traumatic histories @Holocaust_Hud. Compelling talk by Iby Knill on her personal experiences of Nazi persecution.

Fantastic final panel discussions, from grand historical narratives of the 1914-18 conflict, to the need to integrate newly discovered local and global histories. And this great illustration of our discussions! @Hidden_Hist @Voices_WW1

Final panel discussion: Why Remember? Are anniversaries useful hooks for commemoration? Or can they be limiting? @Hidden_Hist @Voices_WW1

Historical object boxes, virtual reality green screens and trips to the IWM! Great to hear about @Hidden_Hist Young People's Education Hub at today's AHRC Communities, Commemoration and Collaboration conference. @Voices_WW1

Free event: German Prisoners of War at Donington Hall and Kegworth Camps 1915-1919 hiddenhistorieswwi.ac.uk/uncategorized/…

We're delighted that #TheyShallNotGrowOld won the Innovation award with @I_W_M at the #MandHAwards! Peter Jackson's film won for being “ground breaking" and for its "huge impact"
