Research Interests
Elizabeth’s work interrogates the role of museums and World Heritage Sites in representing and reflecting cultures and communities. Key projects consider representations of the Near East within nationally funded galleries and museums with Dr. Derek Bryce, University of Strathclyde, and a study of Durham World Heritage Site with Dr Simon Woodward, Centre for Sustainable Tourism, Leeds Metropolitan University. She is additionally involved in a project at WHS Goreme, Cappadocia with Associate Professor Hazel Tucker, University of Otago, New Zealand. She retains an interest in audience/visitor studies.
