So parents and their grown up children have been living in that single room for 34 years. That’s where they eat their meals, and students among them do their homework while others are trying to sleep.

Dear Mr. Praveen Pardeshi, #Municipal #Commissioner, @mybmc Sir we are going through tough times and to cease the #coronavirus in #slums of #Mumbai there's a need for #MCGM & #Maharashtra #Government to vigorously work with Community Based Organisations (#CBOs) @OfficeofUT (cont)
There are 1200 plus #CBOs in #Mumbai formed under the #Slum #sanitation Program of #MCGM. @CMOMaharashtra if #BMC could appoint one nodal NGO/CBO who are experts in Sanitation, through nodal #NGO government/companies could find it easy to reach the CBOs & their communities (cont)
with various welfare packages and would also find easy to detect the affected person easily because #CBOs are formed for caretaking the community toilets and welfare of the community, they have the list of families who are the beneficiaries of the toilet and are also aware (cont)
Today, I will try my hand at live tweeting insights from "A #Home of One's Own", a two-day #researchworkshop on socially & economically #marginalised women's experiences of and negotiations with #genderinequalities in #informalurbanhousing in India.
This workshop has been organised by #JadavpurUniversity (School of Women's Studies), #RabindraBharathiUniversity (Centre for Women's Studies) and #Parichiti, a women's organisation. All three are research partners on a #GCRF project funded by @GoldsmithsUoL.
Since Oct 2018, I have collaborated with Dr. Henrike Donner, who is leading it, to develop #researchcollaborations with #educational and #development organisations in India to implement a pilot study on #genderurbanhousing. This workshop marks the end of the first phase.
