About
I’m SK Abdul Gafur, a doctoral student and educator based in Kolkata, focused on linguistics, literature, and culture. I work across teaching and multilingual translation, with a strong interest in cultural heritage, public history, and making cultural memory more accessible through careful documentation and inclusive storytelling.
I’ve contributed as a translation coordinator and digital fellow across Wikimedia and open knowledge initiatives, and I support research and public-facing communication through curatorial and quality-assurance roles. My background also includes anthropology doctoral studies, learning design and digital ethnography work on migrant life, and conference/publication efforts in Bengal studies—connecting language, archives, and communities in a way that helps knowledge travel beyond academia.
