The Stuart Hall Archive Project is a major multi-disciplinary research project that will expand public understanding and engagement with the work of the celebrated cultural theorist, Professor Stuart Hall.

Launched in July 2023, the project has financial support from the University of Birmingham for an initial three year period.

Stuart Hall was a Jamaican-British academic, writer, cultural studies pioneer, public intellectual and teacher who was born in Kingston, Jamaica in 1932. As a leading public intellectual, Hall made significant interventions in the cultural and political life of Britain, was foundational to the development of a new research field (cultural studies), and contributed to major political and cultural debates throughout the second half of the twentieth century. Hall was Director of the Centre for Contemporary Cultural Studies at the University of Birmingham from 1964 to 1979.
