EUROTAST: understanding the history of the transatlantic slave trade and its legacies today

A Marie Curie Initial Training Network funded by the European Union and called EUROTAST  aims at contributing to a better understanding of the history of the transatlantic slave trade and its legacies today. The network offers Fellowships to 13 early stage and two experienced researchers to conduct research on various aspects of the transatlantic slave trade. Working together on a common theme, a team of historians, archaeologists, sociologists and geneticists will examine various aspects of the slave trade that will increase our understanding of this traumatic period in our history and, thus, help us to come to terms with it.
