Tomorrow I am leaving for New Delhi. I am very excited, a little nervous, and dreading the 15+ hour flight.
On Monday I begin an internship with SEWA-Bharat. SEWA is the Self-Employed Women's Association. I will be working at the national headquarters. SEWA does a number of things, but primarily it is a trade union for women working in the informal sector of India. For example, members include street vendors, embroiderers, and rag pickers. I am really excited to be working with this organization. I look forward to writing much more about it.
For now I must do some last minute packing, but at least this blog is now up and running. I'll be updating it frequently so please check back in!
