Museum practitioners working with traumatic pasts and addressing legacies of that past, often engage with various issues which shape and inform their approach. Too often practitioner experiences can be overlooked as exhibitions and displays are created.

In dealing with issues regarding a traumatic past it is essential that these issues are considered within the context of exhibition and display development.

To aid practitioners and institutions in this objective the following toolkit has been compiled which addresses some of the significant issues identified by museum staff arising from the marking of the bicentenary of the abolition of the slave trade.
