People, Heritage & Place: Using Heritage to Enhance Community and Well-being in Saltaire, Bradford

布拉德福德是欧洲最年轻的城市之一，超过四分之一的人年龄在16岁以下。自工业革命以来，这座城市一直欢迎来自世界其他地区的人们。布拉德福德是英国最早被正式承认为“避难所之城”的地方之一。该项目将制作Saltaire的精确3D表示，Saltaire是联合国教科文组织的世界遗产(WHS)，也是布拉德福德的历史郊区，通过一条绿道与城市连接在利兹-利物浦运河前布拉德福德支流的路线上。Saltaire的数字双胞胎及其连接路线将用于探索位置制作，并为遗产资产的管理和公众受众的参与提供信息，并将与现有的虚拟布拉德福德模型相连接。在大学和理事会之间强有力的工作关系的基础上，来自教育、社区团体和难民行动团体的新伙伴将为公民参与战略发展和规划提供切实的途径。伙伴们都有一个共同的愿景，即我们年轻人的健康和福祉植根于社区、归属感和场所。布拉德福德是第一个联合国教科文组织电影之城，也是英国仅有的五个在该地区拥有联合国教科文组织WHS的城市之一。在这些丰富多样的遗产和文化资产的基础上，大学和理事会之间的牢固伙伴关系将侧重于地方的价值和萨尔泰尔的潜力。这将在更广泛的布拉德福德区以及19磨坊村的居民和利益相关者中培养强烈的认同感、归属感和公民自豪感。共同创作的概念是该项目的核心，当地居民、学校和社区团体将收集、解释、使用和重新调整数据的用途，包括艺术成果。为了实现这一点，我们将开发一个联合制作工具，用于为英格兰国家文物名录上的二级名录物业创建一种“动态”状况监测方法，以支持织物测量，并促进业主对已建文物的维护获得名录上的建筑同意。它将为战略规划决策提供信息，例如建立空气质量模型和为Saltaire创建活跃的旅行邻里关系的提议，目的是减少WHS和邻近住宅区的直通交通流量。在认识到遗产对健康和福祉的潜在娱乐价值时，我们将把虚拟布拉德福德模型加入到建议的Saltaire模型中，距离市中心只有4公里。为了帮助学习和游客现场口译，我们将与布拉德福德理事会和索尔泰尔世界遗产教育协会(SWHEA)合作，他们已经获得种子资金，为索尔泰尔开发一款旅游应用程序。这不仅仅是一项技术工作，因为我们认识到，我们的数字孪生兄弟的艺术美学和身临其境的品质适合于将历史图像、地图、平面图、被拆除的建筑、物体和其他无形的叙事内容置于背景中。这将丰富与地方有关的理解和发现，在教科文组织世界遗产及其更广泛的背景下都是如此。我们的项目响应了Saltaire WHS管理计划中列出的目标和愿望。将通过与布拉德福德理事会地方事务部和积极的社区利益攸关方团体建立牢固的现有伙伴关系，促进项目的参与，确保影响是项目开发、实施和产出不可或缺的一部分。该项目将在萨尔泰尔和布拉德福德留下持久的遗产，免费提供数字、艺术和教育资源，并为战略规划决策和社区参与提供信息。

Bradford is one of the youngest cities in Europe, with more than a quarter under the age of 16. Since the industrial revolution the city has welcomed people from other parts of the globe. Bradford was one of the first places in the UK to be formally recognised as a 'City of Sanctuary'. The project will develop an exact 3D representation of Saltaire, a UNESCO World Heritage Site (WHS) and historic suburb of Bradford, linked to the City along the route of the former Bradford Branch of the Leeds-Liverpool Canal via a Greenway. This Digital Twin of Saltaire and its linking route will be used to explore placemaking and inform the management of heritage assets and engagement of public audiences, and will link up with the existing Virtual Bradford model. Expanding on the strong working relationship between the University and the Council, new partners from education, community groups and refugee action groups will provide tangible avenues for citizen engagement in strategic development and planning. The partners share a common vision that health and wellbeing of our young people is rooted in community, belonging and place. Bradford was the first UNESCO City of Film and is one of only five UK cities to have a UNESCO WHS within the district. Building on these rich and diverse heritage and cultural assets, the strong partnership between the University and the Council will focus on the value of place, and the potential for Saltaire. This will foster a strong sense of identity, belonging and civic pride across the wider Bradford District, as well as for those residents and stakeholders within the 19th Mill Village. Concepts of co-creation are at the project's core, where local residents, schools and community groups will collect, interpret, use and repurpose data, including for artistic outputs. To enable this, we will develop a co-production tool, used to create a 'dynamic' condition monitoring approach for Grade II Listed Properties on the National Heritage List for England to support fabric surveys and facilitate listed building consent for property owners towards the upkeep of the built heritage. It will inform strategic planning decisions, such as modelling air quality and the proposed creation of an Active Travel Neighbourhood for Saltaire, with the aim of reducing the volume of through-traffic for the WHS and adjacent residential areas. In recognising the potential recreational value of heritage for health and well-being, we will join the Virtual Bradford model to the proposed Saltaire model just 4 km distant from the City Centre. To aid site interpretation for learning and visitors, we will work with partners Bradford Council and Saltaire World Heritage Education Association (SWHEA) who have secured seed-funding to develop a tourism app for Saltaire. This is not simply a technical endeavour, since we recognise that the artistic aesthetics and immersive quality of our Digital Twin lends itself to a variety of uses suited to placing historic imagery, maps, plans, demolished buildings, objects and other 'intangible' narrative content in context. This will enrich understanding and discovery linked to place, both within the UNESCO WHS and its wider setting. Our project responds to aims and aspirations that are listed within the Saltaire WHS Management Plan. Engagement with the project will be facilitated via strong existing partnerships with Bradford Council's Department of Place and active community stakeholder groups, ensuring that impact is integral to project development, implementation and outputs. The project will leave a lasting legacy of freely available digital, artistic and educational resources, as well as informing strategic planning decisions and community involvement in Saltaire and Bradford.
