  • Summary

  • In the first episode of the Asian Woman Festival Podcast, we meet our founder Shani Dhanda and learn how Asian Woman Festival was born. As a South Asian woman who experiences disability, Shani discusses what helped on her own journey of self-discovery and acceptance. She also shares her motivations behind her intersectional activism, making the world more inclusive.

    Topics discussed in this episode include how Shani started Asian Woman Festival, the multiple barriers and bias Shani has faced due to her identity, resilience and courage, disability and intersectionality.

    Shani is a multi-award-winning disability specialist and entrepreneur listed as one of the UK's most influential disabled people and BBC’s 100 Women 2020 List. 

    As a keynote speaker and practitioner for inclusion across business, government, non-profit and wider society, Shani helps organisations break barriers and integrate inclusion into their business frameworks.

    As an influential woman in leadership, Shani has taken change into her own hands and founded numerous organisations to improve representation and challenge social inequality globally - Diversability, Asian Woman Festival, and Asian Disability Network.
