Thought Project
We are a feminist organisation based in India that creates art and offers training and consultation services on issues of gender and sexuality, diversity and inclusion, using tools of theatre Our consultation services include analysis and drafting of policies, outreach and communication, to promote diversity, inclusion, gender sensitisation and comprehensive sexuality education.
Our training methodology is rooted in intersectional pedagogies that unpack privilege and power and how they manifest in our interpersonal and professional spaces. We are strongly committed to facilitating spaces that are participatory and interactive using tools of applied theatre and arts based methodologies. These tools are embodied and experiential that are conducive to participants’ deep self reflection. We have engaged with over 10,000 participants across diverse age groups and cultural identities in India.
Across 10 years of work, we have built upon our expertise in feminist leadership, women’s issues in India, gender equality, queer affirmative, disability friendly and anti-caste frameworks.
