Polish-Scottish Heritage Project

 

The Polish-Scottish Heritage aims to promote a greater awareness of Poland and Scotland’s shared heritage. It is especially important now that the Polish community in Scotland is larger than ever before (67 000), to discover those long lasting connections, preserving and celebrating the shared histories of places, events and people for present and future generations.

The project will gather historical information and provide interpretation using a variety of multimedia story telling techniques (e.g. photographs, videos, podcasts – prepared in an Oral History sub-project). All of the material will then be organised into an easy to follow and understand “Heritage Trail” in the format of an interactive map with histories of places, events and people linked to the specific location, all presented on a website.
