About Us

Alongside the opening of new Second World War and The Holocaust Galleries at IWM London, IWM’s Second World War and Holocaust Partnership Programme (SWWHPP) supports eight cultural heritage partners across the UK to engage with new audiences and share hidden or lesser-known, local stories related to these histories.

One Story, Many Voices is an innovative digital installation project which brings together a group of celebrated writers, local communities and members of SWWHPP with expertise in binaural sound recording provided by StoryFutures Academy. Together they imagined and created immersive sound worlds with diverse voices reflecting on war and conflict and its impact on our lives today. IWM would like to thank the following people and organisations:
