# A consortium that includes a principal investigator from the University of Pretoria has been awarded funding. This is for a project that will research the colonial history of European universities, and explore how these legacies and heritage can be addressed and curated. The Colonial Legacies of Universities: Materialities and New Collaborations project brings together nine academic and cultural sector organisations in eight countries. The university says research around colonial university heritage is a unique opportunity to develop close international collaborations based firmly on rearticulated power relations.
