Our project is built on a long history of multicultural research in Australia.
One of the resources created from a previous project in the School of Languages and Cultures at the University of Sydney is the Baudin Project, which provides materials and analysis linked to the Baudin Expedition. This site makes available to researchers for the first time the text of various manuscripts in the original French and also provides English translations: https://baudin.sydney.edu.au/written-records/
We collaborate with different researchers, such as
the Australian Migration History Network
Dardalis Archives of the Hellenic Diaspora (another important living archive)
The Global Encounters and First Nations Peoples project based at Monash University
