The Expatriate Archive Centre strives to be as accessible as possible to researchers and others interested in our work. Our initiatives create digital content, expand research into expatriation, and bring expatriate stories to new communities, among other things. Please contact us if you wish to collaborate.

Seminars

We organise seminars for businesses and students to learn about how we archive and why what we do is important. You can arrange a tailor-made talk, workshop, or presentation at your location. Small-group visits to the archive itself are also possible.
