Historical and Documentary Research on the City of Odesa in Support of the Protection and Enhancement of Cultural and Environmental Heritage

The project reconstructs Odesa’s history from the late eighteenth to the early twentieth century to support urban heritage protection and enhancement in line with UNESCO recommendations and the Historic Urban Landscape approach. Drawing on international scholarship and French-language sources, it examines the city’s historical, social and cultural transformations and its multiethnic character. Following the research group’s methodological guidance, the researcher will assist in collecting, organising and digitising historical sources, creating and analysing datasets, including with digital and AI tools, and preparing documentation for the project’s Scientific and Technological Guidelines
