My research is concerned with histories of imperialism in settler colonial contexts, with a specific focus on the connections between humanitarian interventions and changing understandings of childhood in these places. I have written about race, labour and education in settler societies, focusing on how ideas about race informed government and mission-led education for Indigenous children. I have a particular interest in South African histories in a broad imperial context. I am currently working on histories of childhood and emancipation in the Cape colony and the British Empire.
