This report was commissioned in 2019 by the LSHTM Senior Leadership Team (now Executive Team) to conduct a time-limited piece of research on the School’s colonial history (1899-1960). LSHTM was set up as a colonial institution and benefitted from and contributed to British colonialism in a variety of ways between 1899 and 1960. It is largely to its role in British colonialism that the LSHTM owes its current power and position as a leader in health research and teaching.
