Abstract
This short report is one of a series of outputs to flow from the international,
interdisciplinary project ‘Looking back to move forwards: a social and cultural history
of home heating’ (JUSTHEAT), funded through the Collaboration of Humanities and
Social Sciences in Europe (CHANSE) initiative, which began in 2022 and runs until
2025. Within this project, we aim to understand how major changes to home heating
and heating technology over the last 70 years have impacted our lives in diverse and
often profound ways and how these impacts are experienced differentially across
place, time, social groups and even between different members of the same household.
Ultimately, we aim to distil learning from these... (More)
This short report is one of a series of outputs to flow from the international,
interdisciplinary project ‘Looking back to move forwards: a social and cultural history
of home heating’ (JUSTHEAT), funded through the Collaboration of Humanities and
Social Sciences in Europe (CHANSE) initiative, which began in 2022 and runs until
2025. Within this project, we aim to understand how major changes to home heating
and heating technology over the last 70 years have impacted our lives in diverse and
often profound ways and how these impacts are experienced differentially across
place, time, social groups and even between different members of the same household.
Ultimately, we aim to distil learning from these historic accounts to promote a more
humane, user centred and just approach to the current transition from fossil fuelled to
low carbon heating systems across the UK and the EU. In pursuit of this, the project
employs a combination of oral histories, archival research, a network of fine artists and
innovative approaches to bridge the chasm between policy makers designing low
carbon heating transitions and the needs and expectations of the citizens they serve. (Less)
