Webinar Colonial Collections in the Netherlands
The colonial past has left traces in the collections of Dutch museums and other institutions. Because of the imbalance of power, many objects were removed from their countries of origin and brought to the Netherlands and became lost to communities. The current Dutch policy on colonial collections aims to help rectify this historic injustice by facilitating requests for restitution of cultural heritage objects from countries of origin, by working towards openness and transparency about collections in the Netherlands, and by strengthening international collaboration on these collections.
