About the People's History Lab
The People’s History Lab is a hub for researchers in history whose work investigates populations that were previously left out of or misrepresented in mainstream historical narratives. The lab studies historical populations for the purpose of better understanding our shared history as well as present populations.
The lab aims to serve the people by running a seminar series for researchers; serving as a hub for students interested in economic history; and most importantly, engaging with members of the general public either through media and community outreach so that our work has impact beyond the academy.
