This Fellowship explores the benefits of co-producing energy history research with young people in museums. By collaboratively researching the histories of women and energy to co-produce a critical re-interpretation of domestic objects in Leeds Museums and Galleries' collections, we will effectively facilitate a public conversation via an exhibition, podcasts and digital classroom resources, on who has the power to make the decisions that need to be made to create the post-carbon home of the twenty-first century. I will work with Leeds Museum's established youth collective, the Preservative Party: a diverse group of 14-24 year olds. We will co-produce research founded in the numerous objects in the Leeds collections that represent the histories of energy but are rarely interpreted as such and never from the point of view of women influencing energy decisions. Building on the Preservative Party's work to explore the overlooked histories of museum objects, we will ask why it is important to understand how energy transformations were effected and often led by women in their homes? What can we learn from historic social and gendered drivers for change at a moment when we all need to transition to a post-carbon energy supply? How does co-production empower young people, often our contemporary leaders in climate activism, building new skills that enable them to be more effective environmental activists?The Fellowship will develop my research leadership in energy history through the co-production of research with young people. The project is founded on 20+ years of working together with Leeds Museums and Galleries to deliver educational engagement activities and teaching. I have led on cultural partnerships in Leeds, particularly during my 10-year tenure as the Deputy and then Head of the School of Fine Art, History of Art and Cultural Studies and successfully delivered the first Memorandum of Understanding between the University and our City museums and galleries. But I have never consolidated my research expertise in histories of the c19th home and my leadership in educational engagement and I have not yet co-produced research with the communities that I most want to learn from and impact - young people living in Leeds. The Preservative Party and I will co-create an exhibition and educational resources that will be disseminated on MyLearning.org: a digital platform for free National Curriculum Linked learning resources from arts, cultural and heritage organisations. These resources will speak to their current concerns about sustainability and the environment while questioning the history of decision making and the power of social persuasion in energy transitions. Focusing on the question of 'Who had/s the power to make energy decisions?' and reframing the history and historiography of this through women's experiences in the home, we will use cross-disciplinary explorations of the history of energy in a way that engages a diversity of voices in both process and outcomes. By co-creating the educational outcomes, our focus will be on continuing to develop the young people's agency in the way that education in heritage spaces is conceived and delivered in Leeds.I will share my learning on the benefits/challenges of co-production and its role in energy history research, via the work I do to support and inspire ECRs at the University, my museum collaborations, work on educational policy and my leadership of a national network of teachers, supporting them to support young people to develop the skills, cultural and science capital to increase their agency in energy activism. The Fellowship will create a step-change in my research leadership and will impact nationally and internationally our understanding of the importance of social and cultural history in energy futures and the role of young people, their teachers and our museums in generating environmental change.

该奖学金探讨了与博物馆中的年轻人共同制作能源历史研究的好处。通过合作研究妇女和能源的历史，共同制作一个关键的重新解释国内对象在利兹博物馆和画廊的收藏，我们将有效地促进通过展览，播客和数字课堂资源的公共对话，谁有权力作出需要作出的决定，以创建后碳的二十一世纪的家。我将与利兹博物馆成立的青年集体，保护党：一个14-24奥尔兹的多元化群体。我们将共同制作研究，这些研究建立在代表能源历史的利兹收藏品中的众多对象上，但很少被解释为这样，也从未从影响能源决策的女性的角度出发。在保护党探索博物馆物品被忽视的历史的工作的基础上，我们将问为什么了解能量转换是如何影响的，并且通常是由妇女在家中领导的？在我们都需要向后碳能源供应过渡的时刻，我们可以从历史上的社会和性别变革驱动因素中学到什么？联合制作如何赋予年轻人，通常是我们当代气候行动主义的领导者，建立新的技能，使他们成为更有效的环境活动家？该奖学金将通过与年轻人共同制作研究来发展我在能源历史方面的研究领导力。该项目建立在与利兹博物馆和画廊合作20多年的基础上，以提供教育参与活动和教学。我在利兹领导文化合作伙伴关系，特别是在我担任美术学院副院长和艺术史与文化研究学院院长的10年任期内，并成功地交付了大学与我们城市博物馆和画廊之间的第一份谅解备忘录。但我从未巩固过我在c19家园历史方面的研究专长和我在教育参与方面的领导地位，我还没有与我最想学习和影响的社区--生活在利兹的年轻人--共同进行研究。保护党和我将共同创建一个展览和教育资源，这些资源将在MyLearning.org上传播：这是一个免费的国家课程相关学习资源的数字平台，来自艺术，文化和遗产组织。这些资源将讲述他们当前对可持续性和环境的担忧，同时质疑能源转型中决策的历史和社会说服力。关注“谁有权力做出能源决策？”通过女性在家庭中的经历重新构建这一历史和历史编纂，我们将以一种在过程和结果中都能听到不同声音的方式，对能源历史进行跨学科的探索。通过共同创造教育成果，我们的重点将是继续发展年轻人的机构，在遗产空间的教育是在利兹构思和交付的方式。我将分享我对共同生产的好处/挑战及其在能源历史研究中的作用的学习，通过我所做的工作，以支持和激励大学的ECR，我的博物馆合作，我致力于教育政策，领导全国教师网络，支持他们支持年轻人发展技能，文化和科学资本，以增加他们在能源活动中的作用。该奖学金将在我的研究领导力中产生一个阶段性的变化，并将在国内和国际上影响我们对社会和文化历史在能源未来的重要性以及年轻人，他们的教师和我们的博物馆在产生环境变化中的作用的理解。
