About the Seminar

The Centre for Research in History, Heritage and Memory Studies organises an annual seminar series, with a mixture of online and in-person talks. For 2024-25 we have focussed on the thematic priorities of Centre research groups – Religion and Conflict; Memory Studies; Material and Immaterial Cultures; History and Policy; and Oral History – to deliver a varied programme encompassing both internal and external speakers. Starting with an online seminar from Dr Matt King (University of South Florida) on Crusade and Jihad in the medieval mediterranean, and ending with Professor Gill Allwood of NTU on national and local climate policy in Uganda, the series offers a vibrant mix of period, theme and geographical focus.

If you have any problem connecting to the session, please contact catherine.gower@ntu.ac.uk or aahresearchevents@ntu.ac.uk

We will only use the information provided in the registration form for organising the seminar. Information will not be shared with anyone beyond the seminar organisers, and it will all be deleted shortly after the seminar has taken place.

We will then be able to add your name and email address to a mailing list for future events. For more info, please email AAHresearchevents@ntu.ac.uk.
