Thinking differently about heritage
“Instead” is not a legally constituted entity or a registered partnership. It is much more. It is a network of practitioners, researchers, policy makers and organizations that group and regroup according to the needs of every client, every appointment and every heritage place.

WHO WE ARE
The benefits of the right team: Instead is a long-standing research and consultancy team which has gained recognition in recent years for providing support for heritage places, in particular World Heritage properties.
This team brings a shared belief that heritage forms a key part of society today, as well of future generations, to be both cared for and used effectively. Their experience combines a wealth of site experience with research and policy work, where international perspectives are grounded in a genuine understanding of the local context. For each project the core team is not only joined by specialists from different disciplines but national/local specialists ensure that international standards are adapted to local circumstances.
Enhanced by extensive experience in the capacity building sphere, and bringing together complementary knowledge, skills and competencies the core team Thompson and D’Andrea deliver results that are of much greater worth than the total sum of the parts.
