The Queer Archive for Memory Reflection and Activism (QAMRA) is a multimedia archival project that chronicles and preserves the stories of communities marginalised on the basis of gender and sexuality in India. Its aim is to aid efforts in queer rights advocacy through archival activism, acting as a resource base for activists, students, educators, artists, and scholars working in the area of gender and sexuality. As a repository of narratives, it hopes to enable and further conversations around the history, present, and future of the Indian LGBTQIA+ community.
The Archive is open to visitors at NAB 113 on Thursdays, and Fridays, from 2 PM to 5 PM.
