She Inspires - Stories from the Tea Sector in Assam
Our special edition photo zine, 'She Inspires,' showcases the empowering stories of women in Assam's tea gardens. Tea Garden workers comprise 20 per cent of Assam's population and are vital to India's tea production.
We delve into the lives of resilient women living in the tea gardens who have transformed into strong advocates for gender equality through training in domestic violence awareness and women's empowerment. Their stories illuminate their triumphs over challenges and demonstrate the transformative power of education and empowerment, inspiring positive change that uplifts many others.
