Kate Huber and Stacey Copeland 4 afleveringen okt. 26, 2026
Living Culture, Making Heritage is a podcast of critical conversations about cultural heritage and identity, hosted by Kate Huber and Stacey Copeland. Each episode asks whose heritage matters, what gets preserved, and why we identify with certain items, places, or histories more than others. Through interviews with critical heritage scholars, museum curators, artists, and community members, the show explores the hard and sometimes unexpected questions about what heritage means in Europe today. It considers how geopolitical and environmental shifts make heritage a way to rethink the past and preserve collective futures. The podcast is produced in collaboration with Diggit Magazine, Tilburg University, and the University of Groningen.
