Heritage EduHub
Heritage knowledge, made to be shared.
Founded in 2024, Heritage EduHub is CIE’s open-access initiative for heritage studies, museum practice, community narratives and material culture.
It translates fieldwork, seminars, research and collaboration into accessible articles, readers, modules, toolkits and training—welcoming beginners without losing intellectual rigour.

Knowledge travels when it can be used.
EduHub helps every cluster transform specialised work into clear, adaptable and context-sensitive learning for students, communities, educators and practitioners.
It connects research and practice without reducing either, building pathways from active CIE work to readers, modules, toolkits, workshops and public knowledge.
