Biography
Sakhi Nitin Anita is a PhD student with the Centre for Gender Studies at SOAS.
As a feminist researcher, she is interested in exploring and expanding the connections between gender, education, development, and feminist praxis. She is also passionate about feminist epistemologies, endeavoring to ‘engender’ knowledge from a space of creative tension with academia.
Beyond her PhD, Sakhi hopes to reimagine the classroom beyond its four walls, as a transformative space that empowers young people to critically examine and creatively challenge the systems of oppression we live in and which live within us.
