Black South West Network : INTAGIBLE CULTURAL HERITAGE PROJECT

Black South West Network (BSWN) was awarded a grant by The National Lottery Heritage Fund to develop, preserve and exhibit African, Caribbean and Asian intangible heritage - aspects of culture that can’t be touched or displayed in a case in a museum. They are cultural practices, representations, expressions, knowledge, or skills that are captured in audio, video and digital ways. They are living stories, songs, poems, dances, plays, photographs and other images of the past and the present.

I worked as a Research Assistant (2019), researching Bristol online archives for objects related to African, Caribbean and Asian intangible heritage, documenting over 130 films, audio clips, and poetry for contributing to creating a unique online platform, supporting the preservation and sharing of community history and culture.
