Pack up your Troubles project
Photos from the development phase of the Pack up your Troubles project in Edinburgh Schools.
A group of young people from secondary schools around Edinburgh came together to research World War 1 to create Kitbags which would be used as a stimulus for interedisciplinary in 4 secondary schools in Edinburgh in 2015.
The project had a strong focus on heritage, the impact of World War 1 on Edinburgh and sought to explore the rights and experiences of young people in that period.
