The Caribbean Memory Project

Website #2: The Caribbean Memory Project

As a long-term archiving and documentary project, The Caribbean Memory Project seeks to help us understand Caribbean history, society and culture in more productive ways. The collection includes a series of different texts: oral histories, photographs and documents of individuals, as well as their affiliation with member organisations (e.g., religious and community groups). These texts function as repositories of knowledge that will not only help to define our identity, but will also provide the kind of awareness that can help ensure the continuity of that identity.
Browse community archives throughout Belize. The following links will go live as archives are added to The Caribbean Memory Project: Belize District, Cayo District, Orange Walk District, Corozal District, Stann Creek District, and Toledo District.
