The WO-NAM fieldwork in India has been truly inspirational. We visited many libraries in Delhi and Mumbai to explore the connections between women's movements and Non-Alignment. We also conducted interviews with leading feminist scholars and activists, including Prof. Devaki Jain

In Cairo we carried out oral history interviews with different activists. We also visited the Aziza Hussein collections at the American University of Cairo, as well as the Women and Memory Forum. Sarah Nagaty is exploring AUC's collections and carrying out more interviews.
