for Public History and Research
WHAT WE DO
We craft historical narratives with deep roots in academic methods and traditions. We also know that the use of history is not always just about retelling history. We are here to help you make an informed decision about the use of history, especially difficult or contested history, and to engage with your audience in a historically responsible way.USE OR ABUSE?
We firmly believe that historical conscience is a virtue in our modern world. We love that more and more people are engaging with history through companies that are using history in their media-products. However, we believe that there is a fine line between responsible use and the abuse of history – and we want to help anyone who believes the same, walk that line.ABOUT
