Australia has a rich legacy of archives, art and artefacts, including 4 shipwrecks in WA, from its history of encounters with the Dutch East India Company (VOC). Through comparative research in Australian and overseas museums and archives we aim to situate Australian collections in a global context, creating new stories about Australia as part of the VOC global network. An interdisciplinary team will train 3 ECRs and 7 HDRs and forge partnerships with the Netherlands, Britain, Denmark, Germany, Sweden, Indonesia, Malaysia, and South Africa, strengthening national capacity. Our analysis will enrich the value of collections, provide narratives for museums and sites, and revitalise content for international and domestic tourism markets.

澳大利亚拥有丰富的档案、艺术品和手工艺品遗产，其中包括西澳与荷兰东印度公司（VOC）相遇的4艘沉船。通过对澳大利亚和海外博物馆和档案馆的比较研究，我们的目标是将澳大利亚的藏品置于全球背景下，创造关于澳大利亚的新故事，作为VOC全球网络的一部分。一个跨学科小组将培训3名ecr和7名hdr，并与荷兰、英国、丹麦、德国、瑞典、印度尼西亚、马来西亚和南非建立伙伴关系，加强国家能力。我们的分析将丰富藏品的价值，为博物馆和遗址提供叙述，并为国际和国内旅游市场重振内容。
