Change from within: Women, youth and communities shaping justice
Issue #2
•
Across this edition, we look at how change takes root when people gain the confidence, knowledge and collective support to act for themselves and their communities.
Through stories from Malanpur, Gwalior and Shivpuri, we reflect on women’s leadership, community-defined justice and the role of young people in widening access to rights, learning and public life.
