We would like to inform that project Complex(ifying) routes/roots: the politics of 'shared heritage' as histories of trade in European museums by dr Melissa Shani Brown (mentored by dr hab. Marcin Grabowski) has been selected for funding by the ULAM NAWA program of the Polish National Agency for Academic Exchange.

This project aims at offering valuable contributions to the discussion of the politics of ‘shared heritage’, the power of museum spaces as communicative media, and the representation of transnational histories within Europe. It does this by focusing upon the representation of histories of trade (such as the so-called ‘silk roads’, or ‘amber roads’) at European museums and cultural heritage tourist sites. More details here.

We would like to congratulate dr Melissa Shani Brown for this outstanding achievement!
