For Journalists

Media enquiries

We are glad to talk to journalists working on education, gender and social equity — including about what is going wrong, not only what we are doing.

For interviews, field visits, photographs or comment, write to media@kabirfoundationindia.org. We ask that any coverage involving children follows our child protection policy: no identifying details, and consent from guardians before any photograph is published.
