The Institute For Heritage And Sustainable Human Development

Inherit is a heritage organisation with a difference. Our primary concern is social need. Our purpose is to demonstrate how people can work with heritage to improve their lives and living conditions.

Inherit is an innovative venture which seeks to demonstrate how heritage can be used as a means to address human need.

In a just society, all people should have the opportunity and capacity to meet their needs and live within a flourishing environment. We believe that heritage has a powerful and necessary role to play in making this vision a reality.

By working with people where need exists, Inherit’s purpose is to demonstrate, in theory and in practice, how heritage can be used to transform lives and living conditions, delivering long-term solutions to the humanitarian and environmental challenges facing society.
