I am a digital historian and cultural producer whose work focuses on public scholarship, memory, Global Africa, historical slavery, and art education. I have been developing multimedia educational projects in the Global South, Digital Public History initiatives such as the Project Baquaqua. I am currently directing the UNESCO project Fragments of Memory: Artistic Representations of Diaspora Lives. I coordinated British Library Endangered Archives Projects, developed digital archives and websites (e.g. Equiano\u2019s World), and several training workshops in Digital Humanities. My work as UNESCO consultant in Africa-Brazilian history (FUNDAJ) resulted in museum and art exhibits. I am a documentary filmmaker working on art and experimental and creative performances in Brazil, Uganda, South Africa, Nigeria, Canada and Egypt. I have extensive experience as a lecturer in Brazil and Canada, with several teaching awards and grants for the development of educational projects, community engagement and public history activities.<\/p>\n
