Centre for the History of People, Place and Community
https://www.history.ac.uk/research/centre-history-people-place-and-community
Based in the Institute of Historical Research, the Centre for the History of People, Place and Community (CHPPC) fosters engaged, innovative research into placed histories across all regions and periods, from the rural to the urban and the parish to the metropolis, with an emphasis on the localised, the micro-historical, and the site-specific. We work together with others to develop imaginative new approaches to making history, and to identify opportunities for history to make a difference in the real world today.
Our two flagship projects are Layers of London and the Victoria County History series. We also run an events series and training sessions, including are free online course in Applied Public History. Everyone is welcome at our free events, which are often hosted online. You can sign up for our events bulletin here: CHPPC Events Bulletin Sign-Up
