ABSTRACT

This chapter discusses the Virtual Museum of Caribbean Migration and Memory (VMCMM), which tells stories of migration from a Caribbean perspective, focused on the experience and impact of the Windrush Generation. It places the VMCMM within a context of future capacity and challenges for virtual museums in the Caribbean. We discuss the development of digital architecture based on the open-source Omeka framework (interactive mapping, 3D and 360-degree media) to support workshops held in the region. The virtual museum reaches beyond passivity to become a platform to upload personal stories, adding to the breadth of co-curated content and known cultural narratives.
