PASSAGE: Partnership for Atlantic Slavery Scholarship, Archiving, and Global Exchange

The National Archives (TNA), with LRF’s Heritage Centre, will establish a major, transnational partnership for archival research in the transatlantic trade in enslaved people, which will connect archival collections at TNA, LRF and other archives in the UK and globally. The partnership combines a collections-based project on the history of slave ships, which will deliver a range of academic and public engagement outputs, with an international research mobility programme that will centre and support the research of scholars from West Africa and the Caribbean on the history of transatlantic slavery.
