About the course

This course focuses on environmental sustainability. The environmental crisis leads to new ways of approaching resources inherited from the past. The course will give you more in-depth knowledge about the questions that environmental change drives through the heritage sectors. You will also learn about how climate change, environmental deterioration, increasing energy dependencies and an escalating extinction of species can be dealt with by changing the way you work with heritage. The course will give you tools to handle some of the complexities of climate and environmental change through critical and affirmative methods where heritage is a resource for the present and future. The learning activities deal with how heritage things, buildings, environments and landscapes can be recycled, upcycled and reused in more sustainable ways.
