Episode 2: Counting Work
How do state institutions count work? Who is recognized as a worker, and who is left out? Despite rising levels of women’s education in India, why are they still underrepresented in the workforce? And how do we measure women’s unpaid work-both productive and reproductive-within the family?
To unpack these complex issues, host Nandita Dutta is joined by economist Ashwini Deshpande and farmer Godavari Marawi, offering insights based on their vast expertise and experiences.

Episode 1: Caste, Violence and Work
How does sexual violence against Dalit and Adivasi women impact their educational and work aspirations. As more Indian women aspire to be in the workforce, how does caste based gender violence put paid to their ambitions?
In the first episode, Nandita Dutta discusses these critical dimensions of work and violence with Dr Shewli Kumar, an academic based in TISS, Mumbai and Augustina Soreng, a grassroots activist who bring their perspectives based on years of research and activism.
