Colonial cultural heritage (CCH) is at a
crossroads grappling with transformative shifts in textbooks, public spaces, museums and cultural consumption, with manifold
impacts on present-day intergroup relations of diverse socio-demographic groups. The need to understand how these groups are dealing
with CCH changes could not be more timely, and that is the overarching goal of the EU-funded CONCILIARE project. CONCILIARE will
adopt an interdisciplinary and multi-methodological approach across pivotal domains to reach a nuanced understanding of reactions to
and representations of changes in CCH. Through small-scale pilot trials across European countries, CONCILIARE will also map
evolving CCH whilst developing evidence-based methods to foster societal confidence amidst transformation.
