Tim Ruting

Fellow

Tim Ruting is an information specialist at the NIOD Institute for War, Holocaust, and Genocide Studies and a historian who specialises in the transnational relations between the liberation of Lusophone Africa and Western Europe. Ruting’s writings emphasize the role of revolutionary diplomacy and solidarity in the anticolonial struggle of Lusophone African liberation movements. Archives at the International Institute of Social History are essential for understanding these interactions between the Global North and South. His latest article ‘Organising Global Activism against Portuguese Colonialism: The Conferences of Driebergen, Schaloen, and Santpoort, 1970–1973’ was published in the 2025 special issue of the South African Historical Journal on dialogues with Lusophone Africa.
