Personal narrative - SEWA
Leelaben Dantani is a videographer and film maker in SEWA, an NGO in Gujarat. This project aims at narrating the story of SEWA keeping Leelaben's personal narrative at the core. We also want to throw light at the unique ways of SEWA’s work and how they empower thousands of women. This is a work in progress.
Experimental research paper
As part of a research paper to be published in the book Beyond Dalit Woman, I, in collaboration with Dr. Sudhanya DasGupta, drafted a story of the Dantani community and a hero born in this community, Leelaben. After carefully listening to all interviews and reading about the history of the community, an ethnographic research paper emerged in a graphical format. One page is shown here.
