Section IV: Africa Missions
Part 23: Uganda, Tanganyika and Rwanda, 1935-1949

These documents provide invaluable material for the history of Uganda, Tanganyika and Rwanda for 1935-1949, a period when African countries were going through tremendous changes leading up to decolonisation.

• It is an excellent resource for the study of mission work including medical initiatives and education policy, the independence movement in Africa prior to decolonisation and the interaction between local groups, missionaries and government.
• Researchers can use these documents for an analysis of the causes and impact of social change, civil disturbances and ethnic differences.
