From the editors "Bringing the history of early globalisation and colonialism to the fingertips of researchers and the wider public.

Over the period 2021-2026, and in close collaboration with scholars from all over the world, we will develop an online infrastructure that unlocks the key series of VOC documents and reports for advanced new research methods. At the same time, the infrastructure will engage the wider public with this many-sided and increasingly hotly-debated period of Dutch overseas history."
