The Santo Domingo Centre of Excellence for Latin American Research at the British Museum and its affiliates hope to challenge the ways in which Latin America is commonly represented and studied in museums by:
SDCELAR curators are specialists in archaeological and Indigenous cultures in Latin America, which is reflected in the projects we support. We currently welcome applications for small grants and collection research from under represented heritage communities, specifically from projects relating to Afrodescendent communities and cultures.
We work with Latin American communities in the research of the British Museum collections.
These projects are contemporary art and heritage research initiatives that show the current innovative perspectives in the study of the culture and history in the region.
