This project aims to bring Australia into the global history of slavery by exploring the legacies of British slavery in Western Australia. Through developing innovative methods for biographical research and digital mapping, it will trace the movement of capital, people and culture from slave-owning Britain to WA, and produce a new history of the continuing impact of slavery wealth in shaping colonial immigration, investment, and law. Expected outcomes of this project include enhanced capacity to build international disciplinary collaborations, new research methods, and a major national online exhibition. Benefits include a radically new perspective on Australian history and abolition in the present, with major public outcomes.

该项目旨在通过探索英国奴隶制在西澳大利亚州的遗产，将澳大利亚带入全球奴隶制历史。通过开发创新的传记研究和数字地图的方法，它将追踪资本，人民和文化从拥有奴隶的英国到西澳的运动，并产生奴隶制财富在塑造殖民移民，投资和法律方面的持续影响的新历史。该项目的预期成果包括增强建立国际学科合作的能力，新的研究方法和一个重要的国家在线展览。其好处包括对澳大利亚历史和目前废除死刑的全新视角，以及重大的公共成果。
