In this episode of The Sanskaari Girls Podcast, the team from Zubaan—India’s pioneering feminist publishing house and NGO—joins Vandita Morarka (founder of SGBC) to explore what it means to be a feminist publisher in practice.
Melissa Fernandes, Aanchal Seema Khulbe, and Indira Tayeng discuss how feminist principles shape editorial decisions, archiving, and on-the-ground community engagement. Together, they reflect on how Zubaan’s unique model bridges publishing and activism, preserves feminist histories, and continues to reimagine what feminist knowledge production can look like in South Asia.
