A conversation between two Aurat March volunteers who worked on the manifesto, an activist who works on khawajasira rights and a disability rights activist.

Aurat March's 2021 Manifesto was on women's health, presenting a Pakistani feminist vision of what healthcare should look like. The COVID-19 pandemic laid bare the stark inequalities in our society. Globally, we found the heart of society to be diseased. Diseased with injustice and inequality, with patriarchy and violence on gendered bodies.

In light of the cruelties wrecked on gendered bodies over the past year, we chose the theme. In the episode we discuss physical, reproductive, mental and environmental/community health. We discuss the gender bias in medical research.
