Environmental Histories: Local Places, Global Processes
Wicken Fen, Cambridgeshire
5 - 7 November 2010
A workshop, organised by Paul Warde, was held at Magdalene College and the Wren Building, Wicken Fen. Wicken Fen served as an instructive example of different types of environmental change, anthropogenic and autogenic, long-term and short-term, as well as instances of continuity. At this site-specific workshop, a core team of mainly academic participants met with representatives of a local, non-university project partner to critically examine what we mean by ‘the environment’ and ‘environmental change’ in both current and past contexts, and on local and international scales. In addition to the paper presentations and discussions, the workshop included a trip to Wicken Fen to familiarise the participants with the different environmental management issues and history of the site.
