项目摘要

Archaeological investigation is a crucial component of infrastructure projects (including rail, road, airports, energy and aggregates), employing hundreds of archaeologists from across the EU. In the UK over £200m will be spent by government on archaeology within infrastructure projects in the period 2018-2022. Europe-wide, the infrastructure spend on archaeology will be at least £1.5billion.The hundreds of millions invested in the field of development-led archaeology are audited as part of the construction process, but the question of public benefit and value has not been audited in the same way. There are no consistent, transparent criteria for assessing the knowledge generated, or the social, cultural and economic benefits delivered through this archaeology, despite the fact that the historic environment has untapped potential to improve social cohesion and tackle inequalities through knowledge creation and participatory action research. Crucial to the sustainability of the fragmented archaeological profession is the effective and relevant communication of results to a variety of audiences, but appropriate methods and innovative solutions are often instigated on an ad hoc basis and their relative success are not evaluated.This Future Leaders Fellowship project led by Dr Sadie Watson will have the long-term aim of developing systems that allow benefit to be measured across infrastructure schemes and in doing so to transform the outputs from these programmes of archaeological work, helping to deliver knowledge that is relevant, creative and digitally accessible to a wider range of audiences. The UK has the potential to be a world leader in this area. The Fellowship project will undertake a review of existing systems already in place for measuring impact and outcomes across the creative and cultural sectors, sciences and business to identify cross-discipline techniques. The project will consult at different scales - across the archaeology sector, HEIs, government, the public (engaged and not yet engaged audiences) and creative industries to understand which new outputs will deliver the greatest impact. The Fellowship project will study comparator international projects, where infrastructure spending has impacted upon archaeology, and review their success.The research will identify and design consistent and transparent systems that provide frameworks for assessing the social, economic and cultural benefits of archaeological work conducted as part of infrastructure development, and qualitatively improve the relevance and usefulness of knowledge generated through this archaeological work.Resulting guidance will enable standardised and sustainable cultural auditing of the impact of this archaeological work. It will provide a clear set of bespoke recommendations for future projects to enhance policy at central and local levels, and to improve project design, ensuring that the societal impact of archaeological knowledge and experience is considered throughout. It will encourage innovation in the planning, implementation and dissemination of archaeological projects, and collaboration across sectors to increase participation in archaeology, encourage participants in archaeological projects associated with infrastructure (both professional and voluntary) to engage in reflective practice, assessing their own roles and contributions, and encourage participation in archaeology amongst previously under-represented audiences, through innovative engagement methods.

考古调查是基础设施项目（包括铁路，公路，机场，能源和骨料）的重要组成部分，雇用了来自欧盟各地的数百名考古学家。在英国，政府将在2018-2022年期间在基础设施项目中花费超过2亿英镑用于考古。在整个欧洲范围内，用于考古的基础设施支出将至少为15亿英镑。在以发展为主导的考古领域投资的数亿美元是作为建设过程的一部分进行审计的，但公共利益和价值的问题却没有以同样的方式进行审计。尽管历史环境在通过知识创造和参与性行动研究来提高社会凝聚力和解决不平等问题方面具有尚未开发的潜力，但在评估通过这一考古学所产生的知识或提供的社会、文化和经济效益方面没有一致、透明的标准。分散的考古专业的可持续性的关键是有效和相关的结果传达给各种受众，但是，适当的方法和创新的解决方案往往是在临时的基础上提出的，它们的相对成功没有得到评估。由Sadie沃森博士领导的这个未来领袖奖学金项目将具有长期的，长期目标是开发能够衡量各种基础设施计划效益的系统，并在此过程中转换这些考古工作方案的产出，帮助提供相关知识，更广泛的受众可以通过数字方式获得。英国有潜力成为这一领域的世界领导者。该研究金项目将对现有的衡量创意和文化部门、科学和商业影响和成果的系统进行审查，以确定跨学科技术。该项目将在不同的规模上进行咨询-考古部门，高等院校，政府，公众（参与和尚未参与的受众）和创意产业，以了解哪些新的产出将产生最大的影响。该研究金项目将研究基础设施支出对考古学产生影响的比较国际项目，并审查其成功之处。该研究将确定和设计一致和透明的系统，为评估作为基础设施发展一部分进行的考古工作的社会、经济和文化效益提供框架，并从质量上提高通过考古工作产生的知识的相关性和实用性。由此产生的指导将使考古工作的影响能够标准化和可持续的文化审计。它将为未来的项目提供一套明确的定制建议，以加强中央和地方各级的政策，并改进项目设计，确保始终考虑考古知识和经验的社会影响。它将鼓励在考古项目的规划、实施和传播方面进行创新，并鼓励跨部门合作，以增加对考古的参与，鼓励参与与基础设施有关的考古项目。（专业和自愿）参与反思实践，评估自己的作用和贡献，并鼓励以前代表性不足的观众参与考古学，通过创新的参与方式。
