INOSAAR

The International Network of Scholars and Activists for Afrikan Reparations (INOSAAR) is coordinated by the University of Edinburgh and the University of Boston in collaboration with scholar-activists around the world. Over the past four years, we have strived to create an international network dedicated to reparations and other forms of transitional justice linked to the enslavement and genocide of peoples of Afrikan descent, including the invasion of the Afrikan continent by colonial powers that resulted in the oppression and deformation of Afrikan identities. Operating under the aegis of the UN International Decade for People of African Descent (2015–24) and formerly sponsored by the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC), our network has been exploring and expanding the meaning of reparations in link with grassroots activists and scholars engaged in the struggle for reparative justice.
