Delve into the fascinating history of Indian migration to East Africa, particularly Kenya, and the profound impact they've had on the region's economic and cultural landscape. Despite constituting only 2% of Kenya's population at their peak in 1962, Indians played an outsized role in shaping urban economies, dominating Nairobi's bustling streets and influencing coastal port cities with their vibrant culture.

Learn how Indians were instrumental in the construction of the East Africa railway, spanning from Mombasa to Uganda, and how they subsequently assumed key roles in the colonial bureaucracy and private sector. From clerks to station masters, from skilled laborers to small-scale retailers, discover how Indians became indispensable contributors to East Africa's development.
