About this event<\/h3>\n
\n
\n

A session delivered by Christopher Wakefield from the University of York which sold out at CIfA\u2019s Innovation Festival earlier this year. Christopher is the archaeologist responsible for Must Farm<\/a>\u2019s online outreach and is currently working on a PhD on the same topic.<\/p>\n

The presentation will use excavations at Must Farm (a Bronze Age settlement site in England) as a case study to discuss strategies, social media plans, content creation, generating engagement with audiences and evaluating the impact of projects. It\u2019s designed to be practical and cover some of the key barriers to digital engagement in both commercial and community-led environments (such as client confidentiality and lack of time and resources).<\/p>\n

Christopher\u2019s presentation will be followed by a Q&A session to cover any key issues or questions in more detail.<\/p>\n
