The Ameena Gafoor Institute
for the Study of Indentureship and its Legacies
Who We Are
The Ameena Gafoor Institute for the Study of Indentureship and its Legacies (in partnership with the Pluto Educational Trust) has been set up to advance understanding about indentureship and its global impacts.
The study of Indentureship is largely unrepresented throughout academia, with universities in the West paying little or no attention to the history, lives and efforts of indentured labourers and their descendants. At the Ameena Gafoor Institute, we will aim to remedy this through publishing, scholarships, professorships and conferences.
