Concept of the Indentured Labour Route
The aim of the Indentured Labour Route project is to bring together all countries having experienced the migration of indenture and other forms of contract labour in the 19th and mid-20th centuries.
It strives to contribute to nation building efforts and to a greater understanding among peoples and societies across the indentured diaspora as well as within the countries themselves.
The project also gives indentured labourers and their descendants a voice. The indentured and their descendants have the opportunity to present their version of their experience.
The project would also benefit from experiences, lessons learnt, resources, experts from the UNESCO Slave Route Project.
