Jahajee Sisters is an  Indo-Caribbean movement-building organization committed to 
creating a safe and equitable society for women, girls, and gender expansive people. We foster solidarity and empowerment through dialogue, arts, leadership development, and grassroots organizing. 

During the period of Indian Indentureship (1838-1917), Jahajee Bhai and Jahajee Bahen (ship brother and ship sister) were terms used by our ancestors to unify and support each other in the midst of the harsh voyage by sea from South Asia to the Caribbean. Despite adversity, our ancestors were able to forge bonds, survive and thrive. In this spirit, Jahajee Sisters seeks to build community and power to address critical issues challenging Indo-Caribbean women.
