Asians of Africa : Objectives of the Project

A discussion forum for people originally from the Indian sub-continent who settled in Africa, then emigrated to Europe, Americas, Australasia and the Indian sub-continent. The countries we will cover are Aden, Sudan, Ethiopia, Kenya, Uganda, Tanganyika, Zanzibar, Rwanda, Burundi, Congo, Seychelles, Malawi, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Mozambique and Madagascar. This forum will be linked to the Asians of Africa website and project.

We will be carrying out the following activities over the next ten years:-

1. Build a library of books, telephone and post directories, novels, community histories, community magazines and all literature by East Africans, or on East Africa to preserve for the sake of future generations. Once this library has reached its desired level, we will commence negotiations with the British Library in Euston to safeguard it as a separate unit for future generations.
