Webinar Colonial Collections Datahub: introduction and conversation

The Colonial Collections Datahub is a digital platform that brings together, enriches and provides insights into collections from colonial contexts. It includes heritage from Suriname, Indonesia, Sri Lanka, South Africa, Aruba, Curaçao, Sint Maarten and many other countries and areas scattered across various institutions. In this webinar you will learn more about how the datahub works, how you can contribute and how it relates to your work. You will hear about local digital heritage initiatives and together we will exchange experiences and ideas around the role these platforms can play in restitution work.

These webinars are organised in collaboration between the Heritage Academy and Consortium Colonial Collections. The webinar will be given three times to facilitate participation across different time zones and regions:
