Uncovering Gender-Based Behaviors in India's Slums

By: Vedant J Maheshwari
  • Summary

  • I decided to return to India to a Jagriti-affiliated government school. I spent a week volunteering at the school, teaching English, interacting with the students, observing gender-based behaviours, and interviewing families regarding gender-based issues. These podcasts offer insights into gender-based variations in behaviours and experiences as shared by individuals living in a slum community. This publication addressed factors contributing to gender-based inequality in the slums and how societal expectations can mould a future from a young age.
