Migration

A List of Things That Bring Joy

Taw Yalla

This Winter Issue we’re looking for nonfiction and creative essays that challenge the romanticized narratives of beauty and highlight the ecological realities of this fragile landscape.

We invite your reflections on : What does our geographical situatedness reveal about the politics of our state? How do man-made disasters reshape communities and gender roles?

Pitch to us through link in bio!

Deadline - 15 February, 2025

Last Saturday, we gathered in Kathmandu with researchers, practitioners, and writers to explore oral archives and documentation. Through readings and participant sharing, we facilitated discussions on personal archive projects and how can we use them as juxtaposition to state archives 📕

Grateful to everyone who joined and contributed their insights. We hope this workshop helped participants to think deeply into their work and prepare for future archival endeavors 🙏

Shoutout to @_simrain and @justjimba for supporting us with the event 💗

Here’s to many more such workshops ahead!

Hey storytellers, researchers, and curious minds!

We’re hosting a workshop + exhibition diving into migration, gender and feminist perspectives on research.

What does migration feel like? What memories does it carry?

Through feminist storytelling and archiving, our in-person workshop, “In Her Footsteps,” will look at women’s migration stories from the Eastern Himalayan Region.

🌍 We will explore how borders and gender intersect.
📖 Reading circle and a sharing circle, followed by discussions and activities.
📅 Limited slots available—register now for the workshop via the link in our bio!

The exhibiton is open to all and will be on display after the workshop.
