A two-part webinar series looking at how Heritage Impact Assessments can be used to examine and mitigate change in historic environments

Heritage Impact Assessments are an essential and valuable process for the heritage and development sectors to seek a balance between sometimes conflicting objectives.

As a core part of many heritage consultants’ work, the resulting statements are read by a range of audiences – professional and public – to understand ‘significance’ and ‘harm’ and how to interpret these ideas in different contexts. In this two-part webinar series, we will look at how to do effective assessments, as well as unusual case studies, and forthcoming best practice guidance.

For professionals and communities alike. This is an important part of the planning process and raises many issues for debate about assessing and managing change successfully.
