Methodology
Oral History: From Preparation to Archive
Oral history preserves personal experience as testimony. It requires careful interviewing, authorised quotations, and a clear link between the recording and its conditions of use.
Open guideMethodology
Family Archives: Order and Context
An archive gains meaning through provenance, relationships, and access conditions. Begin with a collection survey without unnecessarily disturbing its original order.
Open guideMethodology
Careful Preservation of Family Materials
Preservation begins with observation, careful handling, and an understandable storage system. Complex damage requires specialist assessment.
Open guideMethodology
Digitisation: From Plan to Reliable Copy
A useful digital copy belongs to a managed archive rather than standing alone. The plan covers selection, capture, checking, description, and backup.
Open guideMethodology
Metadata That Preserves Meaning
Metadata should be consistent, verifiable, and understandable beyond one person's memory. Unknown information is marked as unknown rather than filled with guesses.
Open guideMethodology
Informed Consent and Participant Choice
Participants should understand the project's purpose and available restrictions before recording. Consent is stored securely and remains linked to the material.
Open guideMethodology
Ethics: Respect, Safety, and Accountability
Formal consent is not enough when publication creates foreseeable risk. Sensitive material requires additional review and a clear feedback route.
Open guideMethodology
Verification: From Claim to Source
Verification checks not only that a citation exists but that it supports the claim. Cultural descriptions also require confirmation from a country expert.
Open guideMethodology
Translation That Preserves Meaning and Context
Localisation preserves sources, attributions, disclaimers, and culturally meaningful terms. Examples and search phrasing are adapted without changing meaning.
Open guideMethodology
Content Accessibility Across Formats
Clear hierarchy, descriptive alt text, captions, transcripts, and text-based PDFs make one resource usable in different ways.

Open guideFamily Academy
Wellbeing in the Family Rhythm

Shared agreements, understandable exceptions, and regular review can accommodate learning, work, rest, and differing needs.
Open guideHeritage
Genealogy: A Family History in Documents
This page offers an ethical, practical path from home archives and oral accounts to cross-checking records, marking uncertainty and preserving copies with care.
Open guideHeritage
Oral Traditions: Listening and Preserving
The page explains how to prepare neutral questions, record with informed consent and present memory as testimony rather than uncontested fact.
Open guideHeritage
Family Recipes: Taste, Memory and Context
The page shows how to record a recipe clearly, preserve variants and identify who prepared it and when. Personal memory should remain distinct from broad cultural conclusions.
Open guideHeritage
Family Crafts: Material, Skill and Transmission
The page proposes step-by-step documentation, preservation of local terms with explanations, and a clear distinction between family practice and claims about an entire culture.
Open guideHeritage
Family Celebrations: Meanings, Roles and Change
The page describes celebrations from participants’ perspectives: their meanings, roles and changes over time. Participation and documentation both require consent.
Open guideHeritage
Migration Memory: Routes, Objects and Voices
The page supports careful collection without pressure to revisit painful experiences. Personal motives and memories should not be turned into general claims about migration.
Open guideHeritage
Family Photo Archives: Description, Rights and Care
The page covers evidence-based description, safe digitisation and rights checks before publication. Uncertainty in identification or attribution should always remain visible.
Open guideHeritage
Letters and Diaries: Private Voices in the Archive

Open guideHeritage
Music and Sound: Family Memory You Can Hear
The page sets out basic recording, description and transcription practices. Authorship, performers’ rights and permitted uses must be checked before publication.
Open guideHeritage
Regional Diversity: One Country, Many Experiences
The page presents regional and community differences without exoticising or ranking them. Any generalisation should state the limits of its evidence.
Open guideResearch
Demography: Reading Population Change Responsibly
The page offers a clear way to read tables and charts: verify the source, year, unit and method. It separates a trend from its explanation and never turns statistics into labels for families or groups.
Open guideResearch
Family Sociology: Questions, Voices and Context
The page helps frame neutral questions, assess samples and notice experiences hidden by averages. It distinguishes correlation, interpretation and causal claims.
Open guideResearch
Cultural Studies: Context, Meaning and Representation
The page connects source analysis with review by culture bearers. It separates description from interpretation, avoids exoticising language and makes internal variation visible.
Open guideResearch
Education Research: From Question to Application
The page asks what was studied, who participated and how outcomes were measured. Practical guidance should match the strength of the evidence and never replace professional assessment.
Open guideResearch
Family Policy: Description, Comparison and Neutrality
The page separates legal rules, administrative practice and evaluation. Cross-country comparisons use common criteria while explaining contextual differences without ranking systems.
Open guideResearch
Migration Research: Routes, Categories and Ethics
The page distinguishes administrative categories, analytical concepts and people’s own descriptions. Quantitative records and interviews can complement one another, but they are not interchangeable.
Open guideResearch
Intergenerational Ties: Exchange, Memory and Change
The page studies exchange in relation to life stage, family history and circumstances. Different generations’ voices are presented without assuming that age predetermines a viewpoint.
Open guideResearch
Digital Heritage: Selection, Description and Long-Term Care
The page covers selection, filenames, metadata, backups and access controls. It distinguishes preservation masters from publication copies and requires transparent disclosure of any AI alteration.
Open guideResearch
Preservation Science: Condition, Environment and Careful Intervention
The page supports material and damage description, safe housing and documentation of every action. Complex cleaning or repair belongs with a trained conservator.
Open guideResearch
Comparative Methods: A Common Frame, Local Context
The page supports case selection, a common comparison matrix and explicit transfer limits. It does not convert difference into ranking or simulate precision when evidence is incomplete.
