The event will provide a showcase of research undertaken by undergraduate History students on the University of Huddersfield’s ‘Digital Victorians’ module. The wider theme of exploring Victorian democracy using digital technologies will be discussed in a short talk by module leader Dr Tosh Warwick followed by a series of presentations by students delving into a number of topics relating to local democracy at the heart of Huddersfield’s democracy through time. There will also be an opportunity for participants to view some documents from historic collections and digital resources relating to the themes explored as part of Local Democracy Week 2018.
