CULTURE, COMMUNICATIONS AND HERITAGE

Challenging, compassionate, influential and pioneering; our research is tackling the grand societal challenges of today. With an ever-growing and ageing population, global economic, political and environmental uncertainties, we are living in a fast changing world where the need to create a culture of sensitivity, compassion and respect is key. We need to reflect on the past to inform the future, preserve our cultural and industrial heritage for future generations, celebrate diversity and protect the physical and mental health of the population. At Swansea University, we explore these topics in a range of research focuses. The world is forever changing. Whilst we are always looking forward, we believe it is important to learn from the past.
