With episodes lasting 30 minutes or less, Can You Hear Us team members join assistant producer, Ragini Puri, on a quick deep-dive into what topic within development is peaking their\ninterest and why it matters. \n\nOn this episode, Ragini is joined by Renushi, a gender and international development professional. She is the founder of the Sthri project- a feminist peer-support network for first generation college graduates in suburban Colombo.\nHow important are informal networks for first-generation salaried workers? \nWithin this group, what are the particular issues faced by BIWOC? \nTo what extent is social mobility based on merit? \nWe discuss this and a lot more in the final episode of So We Heard. Tune in to listen! \n\nResources\nhttps://www.apa.org/pubs/journals/releases/apl-apl0000915.pdf \nhttps://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11162-018-9523-1 \nhttps://firstgen.naspa.org/files/dmfile/FactSheet_04.pdf \nhttps://blog.ukdataservice.ac.uk/first-generation-university-students/ ","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/hb6d6QXaBHmfwvxUGqtZgwdZK5giuMqtEnaz-27KmdI/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9hMThl/OWYxNTU4YjlkZjVi/ZGMzMGVlNGM2MDNh/OTAyOS5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
