Working in the cultural heritage sector is all about making a difference to the people who visit and use our products and services. We believe that we are all better off if we understand how the things we do contribute to bringing about change. To support cultural heritage professionals to grow this understanding, we have developed the Europeana Impact Playbook, webinars, case studies and an active community. Explore and use them below!
The Europeana Impact Playbook is a step by step approach to help cultural heritage professionals design, measure and narrate your impact. Download Phase one and Phase two of the Playbook and explore resources from each phase which support impact practice.
