Welcome to the Interest Groups Page
Welcome to our virtual research hub. Our aim is to help EAHN members find, and collaborate with, scholars working on similar themes and topics within the Network. This space hosts a range of collaborative activities such as group discussion, sharing news and documents, and organizing events and projects.
Interest Groups are encouraged to:

– contribute annually to a new dedicated Field Notes section of the EAHN Journal Architectural Histories.
– apply for third-party funding, which is increasingly available for cross-institutional, international teams of researchers.
We welcome proposals for new Interest Groups, please see guidelines for group coordinators here.
