Dr Karol Mullaney-Dignam speaks to International Federation of Public History Student and Early Career Group

In December 2023, Dr Karol Mullaney-Dignam (History) was invited to speak to the International Federation of Public History (IFPH) Student and Early Career Group. Karols' presentation, titled 'Serendipity and public history', reflected on careers in public history, her own work in the field, and her experience in teaching public history and establishing Ireland's only online MA programme in Public History and Cultural Heritage. The IFPH is an international network of public history programmes, scholars, and practitioners that facilitates the international exchange of information on teaching and research in and the practice of public history. The IFPH Student and Early Career Group is a collective that encourages transnational engagement between students and early-career practitioners of International Public History. Its goal is to be a site where participants practicing and/or studying International Public History can exchange, workshop, and discuss projects, ideas, methodologies, and issues in the field while broadening their networks.
