Through this coming year Northampton University’s innovation research team will be conducting an ongoing study into the nature and impact of our engagement in schools around the UK. The study will take a mixed methodological approach to exploring ‘Kindness: A Legacy of the Holocaust’ as an example of our theatre work as mediated testimony as an alternative to in person survivor testimony.
The study will also examine our inter-departmental engagement with students as a way of exploring knowledge and understanding about the Holocaust as well as the complexities of personal and emotional engagement in the subject through working in creative arts.
A number of our partner schools are participating in the extended programme and we very much look forward to seeing their projects as they develop as well as sharing with you the findings of the study later in 2024. We are very hopeful that this concrete and tangible evidence of the quality of our impact will help us secure greater awareness and understanding of our work as well as provide evidence for wider scale funding to help us reach and engage with schools around the UK who have been unable to bring us in to work with them to date.
