The “Archives in the Atlantic” Conference will explore the ways archives and related cultural heritage institutions throughout the Atlantic World are confronting shared legacies of imperialism, slavery, and Indigenous dispossession through decolonizing traditional standards, developing liberatory practices, and expanding networks of belonging and representation. 

The program consists of panels and sessions representing diverse professional and life experiences. The Program Committee prioritized submissions from individuals who identify as Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC), individuals working at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Tribal Colleges and Universities (TCUs), and practitioners whose work promote justice and inclusivity to the greatest extent possible.

More information about the program and registration will be forthcoming in early 2024. The fee for the registration will be $75.
