Collections of Ghent: Using digitised cultural heritage to improve social cohesion in the city

Pieter-Jan Pauwels

2022 English Technology & Data

Collections of Ghent is a EU-funded innovation project in the City of Ghent with a focus on improving cultural participation and social cohesion in public and third places. We open up digitised cultural heritage to enable dialogue, enrichment and re-use.

In this session we focus on how we use cultural heritage data and technology to engage with the citizens of Ghent. We explain how we co-created an immersive digital experience and show how we encourage the re-use of cultural heritage by organising a Cultural Data Lab and co-creation fund.

Pieter-Jan Pauwels

Innovation Lead/ District09

Pieter-Jan is an innovation lead at District09, the IT-government agency for the City of Ghent in Belgium. His role is to help build bridges between civil servants and tech people, to experiment and collaborate on challenges, before they turn into digital solutions. His focus today is on the project “the collections of Ghent”, where he is one of the strategic coordinators.

CoGhent is a three year EU-granted Urban Innovative Actions (UIA) project of the City of Ghent, focused on digitally opening up cultural heritage data and cultural production to everyone and uses the result as a backbone to create an immersive and inclusive experience room, called the CoGent box. This physical space will travel to three diverse neighbourhoods in Ghent. There, citizens will be able to access, use, and add onto the context-sensitive, query-based digital content from the cultural heritage collection, and share stories and objects from fellow citizens through immersive, interactive, storytelling and participatory activities.
