The Indian Memory Project was founded in India, by Anusha Yadav (photographer and designer for the Memory COmpany) in 2010. It is the world's first online narrative and image based archive that traces the history of the Indian Subcontinent using images and narratives as offered by families and individuals across the world. Indian Memory Project is a project in continuation and is an attempt to understand, in a unified way, the history of the subcontinent, its experiences, humanity, choices and its circumstances that have made the region and its people who they are. Indian Memory Project is dedicated to nurturing greater tolerance, understanding, cultures, love and capacity for learning among citizens of India, its neighbouring countries and the world.

Archive Records : Indian Memory Project has received images from families and people based in Canada, USA, Ireland, Bangladesh, Pakistan, India, United Kingdom and the oldest photograph is from 1860.
