With a grant from the National Archives' Collaborate and Innovate Archives Testbed fund, the project will establish a network of ‘critical friends’ from outside the university to work with staff and collections, along with students and staff from teaching programmes in History of Art and Design, Curating Collections and Heritage, Fine Art and Creative Writing.

Titled ‘Creating, curating and consuming the archive: an integrated frame for investigating diversity’, this project responds to the increasingly widespread drive for decolonisation across the archive and museum sectors.

Among different strands, the project will provide a timely 75th anniversary look at the major 1946 exhibition at London's V&A Museum, which promoted British design in support of post-war recovery five years before the far better known Festival of Britain. Yet documentation of both events presents as largely silent on the contribution of the people and resources of the British Empire, soon to become the Commonwealth. The project seeks to open new narratives and perspectives on these events and materials.

The university’s Associate Dean for Research and Enterprise Andrew Church said: “We are delighted to work with the National Archives, harnessing the Design Archives’ distinctive position bridging higher education and heritage. The project makes a critical, practice-led contribution to student experience and learning at Brighton, and to the university’s ongoing work to improve equality.”

, Design Archives Leader and Principal Research Fellow, said: “We’re grateful to the National Archives for supporting this collaborative work to develop new, more inclusive understandings of our collections and practices. We look forward to sharing our learning with the sector.”
