Yesterday,I turned a year older. I guess the last in Delhi for a while…spent the day putting 15 yrs of life in this magical city into boxes. One box at a time. Moments, big & small. The city with a tender heart(beyond its rough edges). Thank you for becoming my forever home ❤️✨

Still reeling from the brilliance at the #GenDip Workshop in Sweden 🇸🇪! Presented my paper on gendering Delhi’s diplomatic bubble, celebrated our new book Gender and Diplomacy (w/ @eliseinthewoods.bsky.social ), and yes—there was a sauna + cold lake dip 🧖‍♀️❄️

Hey dipali, I too am unsure about being at ISA 2026 as of now. But absolutely agree with your idea of continuing this conversation. As Laura suggested, a virtual event maybe ?

How is it that we as citizens are not revolting at such governance failure. Yes, it is that! What is the plan? How are political leadership (state +centre) joining forces for finding a solution ? Year after year, Delhi has become inhabitable!

Māori MPs briefly suspended the Aotearoa parliament’s attempts to reinterpret their founding treaty in the most bad ass use of the Haka I’ve ever seen.

She's heeeeere! I love conference roundtables that produce tangible outcomes, & it is a joy to be in community with the 6 other folks who made "Pedagogical Principles of Care: An Intro & Practical Guide." Requires an ISA login but you need not be a member: www.isanet.org/Professional...

Seven principles from which to start:

1. Trust: Viewing students as full people with full lives who can make decisions for themselves, and who are capable of caring for you
2. Vulnerability: Committing to practicing care in an uncaring environment, even when it may not be understood, and knowing when care is insufficient
3. Courage: Asking students to be courageous in listening and questioning, and providing them the tools to be so, and mindful that courage takes different forms that are not often visible
