Periodic Reporting for period 1 - PITCH (Petroculture’s Intersections with The Cultural Heritage sector in the context of green transitions)

Okres sprawozdawczy: 2023-12-01 do 2024-11-30

Podsumowanie kontekstu i ogólnych celów projektu

Petrocultures refer to societies and cultures deeply intertwined with the extraction, production, and consumption of fossil fuels, particularly petroleum. Understanding these petrocultures is crucial for engaging citizens and fostering environmentally transformative shifts in behaviours and perspectives. The PITCH project illuminates how cultural heritage can engage with petroculture’s impact on societies. Cultural heritage, whether in the form of objects, sites, or landscapes, can be mobilised directly in imagining alternative sustainable futures. Through collaborative pilot interventions with cultural heritage institutions and a comprehensive toolkit, PITCH equips heritage practitioners and policymakers to navigate green transitions confidently, ensuring a lasting imprint on Europe’s diverse landscape.

Prace wykonane od początku projektu do końca okresu sprawozdawczego oraz najważniejsze dotychczasowe rezultaty

During the first reporting period (01/12/2023-30/11/2024), the beneficiaries worked primarily on Work Package 1 Mapping the Intersections, along with associated work falling within the three overarching work packages WP6 Project Management, WP7 Dissemination and Communication, and WP8 Ethics.
Significant progress was made on WP1 through team efforts to define petrocultures and critical heritage studies as concepts and establish methods for generating new kinds of insights in heritage practices. Through an intensive team workshop meeting at Lusto in August which involved sharing the data so far collected and drafts of the WP1 outputs, the team came to consensus on our working approaches to both petrocultures and cultural heritage. The first version of the PITCH Annotated Bibliography was released and is available on the PITCH website (https://pitch-horizon.eu/). The data collected in WP1 will provide the historical and contextual background leading to the interventions in museums, landscapes, and industrial sites for later work packages.

Innowacyjność oraz oczekiwany potencjalny wpływ (w tym dotychczasowe znaczenie społeczno-gospodarcze i szersze implikacje społeczne projektu)

The project is still in its early stages and the first year has been spent preparing for the work packages that will create impact.
