The Plataforma Nashonal Herencia di Sklavitud na Aruba (PNHSA) proudly held its first official commemoration honoring the African victims and victors of Dutch slavery and the Transatlantic Slave Trade, spanning from 1657 to 1863. This powerful event brought together community partners and cultural organizations to reflect, educate, and remember the enduring legacy of resistance, survival, and cultural identity.
We honor the legacy of slavery and its impact on Aruba, the Netherlands, and the African diaspora. Through monuments, education, and advocacy, we promote healing, awareness, and justice, guided by Ubuntu to foster unity, equality, and respect.
