We are LIVE tweeting the discussion – Reset and Restart: She Leads a Green World with Minouche Shafik, Geraldine Ang, @sarpanchbhakti, @odelphine, @katehamptongray. Participate with #Raisina2021 #RaisinaDialogue 
.@katehamptongray: #GreenRecovery & #GenderEquality has major intersections. Focusing on gender and climate will deliver a labour-intensive recovery with massive multiplier effects and the chance to achieve rapid growth while reducing inter-generational poverty. #SheLeads
.@katehamptongray: Environmental damage & women’s unpaid work are often ignored by orthodox economics and are only seen as externalities. Consequently, these issues are often held in silos. We aim to bring them to the centre of the conversation. #Raisina2021

The #freedoms we enjoy came at an enormous cost. The contribution to #WWI and #WWII required mobilizing our people and our #NaturalResources.
#Wood was vital to every soldier – for living quarters, food and ammunition crates, trenches, and yes, coffins.

Serving mainly in #Scotland and the #BritishIsles during both World Wars, the #Canadian Forestry Corps (CFC) provided lumber for the Allies. Assembled in November 1916, the CFC was composed of dozens of forestry companies. Loggers also occasionally served as infantry.
Known as “the Sawdust Fusiliers,” the men continued their military training on Saturdays after their week’s work in the woods. Rifle range practice, training with bayonets, and tactical exercises helped prepare the CFC to protect residents and neighbouring airfields.
Today, I will try my hand at live tweeting insights from "A #Home of One's Own", a two-day #researchworkshop on socially & economically #marginalised women's experiences of and negotiations with #genderinequalities in #informalurbanhousing in India.
This workshop has been organised by #JadavpurUniversity (School of Women's Studies), #RabindraBharathiUniversity (Centre for Women's Studies) and #Parichiti, a women's organisation. All three are research partners on a #GCRF project funded by @GoldsmithsUoL.
Since Oct 2018, I have collaborated with Dr. Henrike Donner, who is leading it, to develop #researchcollaborations with #educational and #development organisations in India to implement a pilot study on #genderurbanhousing. This workshop marks the end of the first phase.
