Karen Demavivas said… - Varsha! Exciting news: I have been given the green light by the Asia-Europe Foundation to do a detailed profile of Womanifesto for their cultural mapping publication. It will be one of only 4 profiles for Thailand selected from a large pool so I am thrilled . I will send word soon on what more I will need on the project to write it up. Hurray!
