We dream of an India where marginalised youth emerge as the
next generation of storytellers, reshaping their narratives in
mainstream media.
Who tells our stories matter.
Yet, marginalised populations and minority groups are systemically excluded from the media landscape.
Without access to media literacy, marginalised groups remain locked out of media careers.
The result?
An Indian media that does not reflect the voices of the majority.
Nazaria is on a mission to provide high-quality media training and civic education to marginalised youth and women across underserved communities in India.
A community-led storytelling lab where youth and women experience sustained multimedia arts training and social justice education.
