Exploring Women's Entrepreneurship and Grassroots Journalism in India

Navya Kumar's book 'The Unstoppables' explores the societal and structural challenges faced by first-generation women entrepreneurs, emphasizing cultural and economic barriers before business success. Meanwhile, the feminist collective behind 'Khabar Lahariya,' a women-led newspaper from Bundelkhand, demonstrates grassroots journalism's evolution into the digital age, showcasing marginalized women's voices and their impact on democratic reporting. Both works underscore women's resilience and agency in overcoming obstacles within their fields.
