Heritage is an intrinsic part of anyone’s identity, constructing and influencing the interactions one has throughout their life.

Contextualised under the Eugenics Legacy Education Project theme within the UCL ChangeMakers Funding Initiative, the project created by Maria Popa, Ramona Gonczol & Rares Muscar enabled active student-staff engagement in the construction of knowledge and learning through the interpretation of museum object-based learning of Romanian artefacts.

The idea was that it could act as a catalyst for future initiatives, which can challenge curricula covering difficult topics such as migrant prejudices, misconceptions and injustice, contributing towards reshaping societal perceptions, and enriching academic and public discourse around underrepresented and misrepresented heritage cultures.
