Our Initiatives
EAC Thesis Award
In 2019 the Expatriate Archive Centre is initiating a Master’s Thesis Award. The inaugural topic is: ‘What is an expatriate? Reality vs stereotypes.’
EAC Blog Archive
In 2019 the EAC is rolling out a new digital project: archiving the blogs of expats and of those that deal with topics related to expatriation.
@WeAreXpats RoCur
In 2016 the EAC started a RoCur Twitter account as an experiment in digital archiving; each week a different expat or recent repatriate tweets about their life abroad.
EAC 10th Anniversary
The EAC celebrated its 10th Anniversary in 2018 with the Saudade project: 10 contemporary art pieces by 10 international artists, all in one suitcase.
2015 Exhibition
In 2015 the EAC delved into its own archive and those of several local organisations to visualise Expat Impressions of The Hague from the 1950’s to the present.
Academic Symposium
To celebrate its five year anniversary and encourage research into expat life, in 2013 the EAC organised an international academic symposium on “The Expatriate Experience: Past and Present”.
Student Seminars
The EAC organises seminars for undergraduate students to learn the fundamentals of archiving.
