Meenakshi Gupta: Centering Dignity in Development
Tuesday Jul 16, 2024
Tuesday Jul 16, 2024
Meenakshi Gupta is one of the co-founders of Goonj, an organization focused on bridging critical gaps in urban and rural development across India. In this episode, she takes us on her now 25-year-long journey from a corporate job with the BBC to starting and growing Goonj, where her work focuses on social entrepreneurship by enabling local communities rather than prescribing solutions as an outsider. In fostering compassion and being attuned to the dignity of the communities she works with, Meenakshi is nothing short of an inspirational, pioneering change-maker (and cat-grandma) in the social development space.
