Researching  archives workshop
Overview

Join the RACE Centre and Education Trust team for a workshop sharing top tips on working with and researching our archive collections.

The Ahmed Iqbal Ullah RACE Centre and Education Trust holds a range of archive collections that:

  • Share the histories and experiences of Global Majority communities
  • Offer thinking around race
  • Documents anti-racist activism and social justice movements


At this workshop we'll:

  • Provide an overview of our collections
  • Offer top tips on how to research our collections
  • Share a selection of archive material
  • Support people taking part to identify how you could work with the collections


A wide range of people work with our collections, including researchers, artists, education practitioners, students and activists. This workshop is open to anyone interested in finding out how they could work with our archives.


Arrival is from 5pm with the workshop running from 5.30 - 7.30pm. Light refreshments will be provided.


This workshop has been commissioned by the Guardian's Legacies of Enslavement programme, a 10-year restorative justice programme launched in response to the Guardian founders’ links to transatlantic enslavement.


Following on from a workshop for the programme's commissioned routemaker's, we're running this open session to support more people to work and research our collections.
