The association Mémoire de l’Outre-mer is a cultural association dedicated to duty of memory in relation to the slave trade, slavery and their abolition, and works in the cultural, social and economic field.
In 2007, Mémoire de l’Outre-mer created the cultural center Louis Delgrès - House of the Oversea with the help of the city of Nantes, the culmination of a work begun in 1983 around the slave past of the city Nantes. Since 1998, Mémoire de l’Outre-mer manages a memorial project in the city itself with the city of Nantes, designed by Krysztof Wodiczko and located near a future resource center on the banks of the Loire, key location of the slave trade. This project started in 1983 when the association Combite Dom was created to "allow Nantes to assume its slave past." In 1989, the association took the name Mémoire de l’Outre-mer and its action contribute to the city of Nantes becoming the first city in France to engage in a memory work related to the period of enslavement.
