A similar Project to the TST has been launched through ASPnet for countries in the Indian Ocean.
Following regional workshops in La Réunion (September 1999) and South Africa (April 2001), historians, experts and ASPnet National Co-ordinators and teachers from the Comores, Kenya, Madagascar, Mauritius, La Réunion, the Seychelles, South Africa and Tanzania took part in a pedagogical workshop on “Learning about our Common Past to Build a Peaceful Future” and to plan the next stage of the Indian Ocean Slave Trade Education Project in Maputo, Mozambique, March 2004.
Links are currently being forged between the two projects.
