PASSAGE includes a collections-based research project on histories of enslavement through the lens of British slave ships (1760–1807), using collections at The National Archives. This is combined with an international research mobility programme that centres and financially supports the work of West African and Caribbean archivists and researchers on the history of transatlantic slavery.
