The Katip-Celebi Newton Fund Project

Plural Heritages of Istanbul

The Katip-Celebi Newton Fund Project is co-ordinated by Professor Chris Whitehead. This project seeks to develop new valorisations of the Istanbul Land (Theodosian) Walls. We're working with communities to produce public-facing digital heritage interpretation resources. Our aim is to reflect non-official, unauthorised understandings of the Walls and its surroundings.

The project also builds capacity, in line with the aims of the Newton Fund, through modelling heritage management/interpretation practicedigital technologies and community engagement within the heritage sector.
