Balancing different aims and changing aims
• Connecting the Community with ‘Heritage’ the ‘Natural Environment’.
• To think about Hindu teachings as espousing a ‘holistic’ approach to the world and the environment.
• To encourage ethnic minority groups to engage in the Peak District – not just as visitors but to have a sense of ownership.
• To building on MOSAIC’s work (which focuses on ‘wellbeing’) to move towards a position where the Indian Community can take a leadership position in environmental issues.
• To promote ‘inter-cultural thinking about the National Park and the environment’.
• To try to understand the legacies of the British Empire; how the overseas empire shaped what Britain is today.

What is ‘produced’?
• Funding requirements – to produce a particular kind of thing?
• Do we ‘need’ to be ‘original’? In what we find or how we find it?
• Are we trying to ‘produce’ something? Or to celebrate a process?
