The Center for Black European Studies and the Atlantic is pleased to share its 2025 Annual Report. Throughout the year, CBESA continued to create spaces in which scholars, students, artists, cultural institutions, festivals, and wider communities could think together about Black Europe and the Atlantic. The report documents the programs and student initiatives that brought this growing network to life.
More than a record of what we accomplished, the annual report reflects the kind of institution we are building. CBESA is research center and a community committed to producing and circulating knowledge beyond traditional academic boundaries. The report also recognizes the many people and organizations whose trust made this work possible. Their contributions have allowed CBESA to deepen existing relationships and prepare for the next stage of its development. We invite you to explore the 2025 Annual Report and discover the people and conversations shaping CBESA.
