In this special episode of No-Cost Extension, we look back at conversations we’ve had on the podcast around serving with and for dignity.  Many NGOs work at the grassroot level with communities that have a deep-rooted legacy of oppression which manifests in every economic and socio-political facet of life. From lack of access to education, employment, resources and legal recourse, all while facing discrimination spanning generations. The only way forward to detangle this insidious web of oppression, is to provide space and resources that enable these very people to take back their power. Listen to Nandita Bhatt from the Martha Farrell Foundation talk about her experience in working with and for domestic workers in India. Revathi Radhakrishnan from Vanavil Trust talks about the stigma and discrimination she’s seen the people of NT-DNT communities in Tamil Nadu face. Deepa Pawar from Anubhuti Trust, reflects on her own journey as an NT-DNT woman herself, and what she wants the future of the sector to be like for her people. You can listen to each of their individual conversations with Deval on the No-Cost Extension feed.  If you want to listen to more of No Cost Extension, go to https://www.dasra.org/podcast.php where we have show notes, links and more.
