SLAFNET - Slavery in Africa: a dialogue between Europe and Africa

Escrito por Rúben Oliveira

The objective of the project is to establish a top-level scientific network of several institutions and research groups from Europe and Africa on the field of slavery studies. It aims at focusing mutual efforts of 13 partners with complementary competences and at gathering multidisciplinary expertise in slavery-related issues by encouraging the exchange of researchers from both continents. Our goal is to conduct research on both historical and contemporary slavery and forced labour and to emphasize its international dimension. It involves African and European researchers from various disciplines. It will enrich the analysis of the local situations and address the impact of slavery and slave trade on population histories in Europe and Africa.

This project is funded by EU-Horizon 2020.
