IPinCH Conversations
Date:
January 07, 2015 In this episode, George Nicholas, Professor of Archaeology at Simon Fraser University and Director of the IPinCH Project, discusses how IPinCH came to be, why the project is unique, the importance of working directly with communities, and some of the key challenges the project has faced.
"The IPinCH Project is an opportunity to look at issues relating to heritage - who benefits from it, who controls the process - in a way that really hasn't been done before at this scale. We have the opportunity to work with some of the most socially-committed people in the world."
