  • Summary

  • Maya Sharma is a feminist, lesbian and activist who has been passionately involved in the Indian women’s movement. She has co-written Women’s Labour Rights, a book on single women’s lives. She is currently working with Vikalp Women’s Group, a grassroots organization in Baroda, Gujarat, that works with tribal women and transgender people. She got involved in the movements quite late – in her forties! While doing research for her book Loving Women: Being Lesbian in Unprivileged India, she noticed that women were very isolated and alone in far-flung areas, and saw the need to write about them and bring them together. That was one of the reasons why she joined Vikalp; because it was very willing to take up this issue, unlike several other organisations
