The West African Museums Programme — Its Role in the
Development of Museums in Africa
The West African Museums Programme (WAMP) is a regional
non-governmental organization that assists in building institutional
capacities and providing services to museums and related
institutions throughout West Africa. Since its inception
in 1982, WAMP has efficiently and effectively promoted museum
development in West Africa. It currently collaborates with
over 200 museums and cultural institutions. This presentation
will consider the history of WAMP and the impact it has
had on the museum profession in West Africa. It also will
review WAMP’s recently completed strategic plan for
2006-2010—a plan focused on the development of community
based museums and strategies for the preservation of intangible
heritage.
Co-sponsored by the Center for Afroamerican and African
Studies.

Slave Trade Archives Project Completed
25-02-2005 (Paris)
The Slave Trade Archives project was
an attempt to improve the conservation and accessibility
of slave trade records. It dealt with original documentary
sources bearing witness to the trade, mainly in the form
of written documents. Digitization of these sources, particularly
those at risk from deterioration, will help to establish
a collective memory of this part of history. The project
was based on a desire to guarantee the protection and
accessibility of documents with universal value through
digitization. It did not aim to restore or reconstitute
the original collections themselves.
The project main goal was to improve
access to and use of documents related to the slave trade
and its various forms, in order to highlight its impact
and lasting consequences. An access strategy has been
outlined with a view to establishing on-line access through
the UNESCO website and other sites devoted to the slave
trade, as well as publishing multimedia CD-ROMs on the
slave trade, acts of resistance to slavery, etc. The website
dedicated to slave trade archives has been created with
this in mind.
The project operated in eleven countries:
Benin, Cape Verde, Gambia, Ghana and Senegal in Africa,
plus Argentina, Brazil, Barbados, Colombia, Cuba and Haiti.
