Feminist Documentation

About This Program

Tarangini Foundation preserves and amplifies the voices, lived experiences, and remarkable contributions of women leaders, women workers, women human rights defenders, feminists, and grassroots women activists who are driving change in their communities and across the nation. We document their journeys, highlighting the challenges they overcome, the barriers they confront, and the leadership they demonstrate in advancing social justice, gender equality, and community development.

By capturing these stories, we recognize and celebrate women often overlooked work, created a lasting record of their contributions, and strengthen evidence for advocacy and policy change. Through feminist documentation, we ensure that women's experiences, knowledge, resilience, and achievements are visible, valued, and remembered while inspiring future generations to continue the pursuit of equality, justice, and transformative leadership.
