Peabody

The Peabody Museum, part of Harvard University's Museums of Science and Culture, is dedicated to sharing global cultural heritage and fostering engagement through its extensive collections, which include over 1.2 million anthropological items and 500,000 photographic images. Committed to ethical stewardship, the museum actively addresses its historical role in the objectification of Indigenous peoples and strives for more inclusive practices through community-based projects.

In addition to its current exhibitions, such as "Castaway: The Afterlife of Plastic," the Peabody Museum embraces technology, offering new online exhibitions and recently digitizing 32,000 historic photos related to Indigenous peoples of the Kalahari Desert. The museum provides engaging resources for educators and learners, enhancing the understanding and appreciation of diverse cultural histories.
