This flame shall be our witness. Part of the workshop are map exercises where women find their own village within the district, the district within the state and the state within the nation. For half the women in this workshop, this was the first time they ever saw a map of India. This can be very moving, as women share aspects of their own lives they have long kept secret. Women discover that these issues are not individual to them, but are a society-wide condition.
Women write or draw the conditions of women's lives on large sheets of paper.
Representatives of each group report their findings. Here, Kavita points out drawings of boys and girls - boys in school while girls work, boys playing while girls work.
