Privileges and Social Justice: The COVID 19 Art Project

With Koral Dasgupta, Author and founder of www.tellmeyourstory.biz

Koral has published an eclectic range of books from academic nonfiction to relationship dramas. Her books are discussed from the context of gender studies, art, myth and ecocritical literature. Other than India, Koral’s books are shelved in the libraries of universities in the US, the UK and others. Her fourth book, Summer Holidays, has been optioned for screen adaptation. She is currently working with Pan Macmillan on the five-book Sati series, which is a retelling of the stories of the Pancha Kanya from Indian mythology. She conducts writing programmes and critical thinking workshops for educational and corporate floors.

Koral founded www.tellmeyourstory.biz in order to leverage literature to design and execute extensive learning programmes that inspire social engagement and behavioural change for Inclusion & Diversity. She is recognised in the list of Innovator25 Asia Pacific 2019 prepared by The Holmes Report, and has been listed under the Women of Wonder (WOW) series in Outlook Business (September 2019). Her website is www.koraldasgupta.com.
