Niharika Pandit is a PhD candidate at the Department of Gender Studies from the London School of Economics (LSE). She holds an MA in Gender Studies as a Felix Scholar from SOAS, University of London and a bachelor’s degree in Media Studies and Journalism from Sophia College, Mumbai. Her research interests lie at the intersection of gender, sexuality, anti-colonial and anti-militarist feminist thought, and the politics of representation.

On this episode, we discuss her PhD on everyday politics and practices of living under military occupation in the Kashmir valley. As a feminist researcher, she uses feminist, anti-colonial thought and transnational feminist epistemologies to ground her ethnographic research work.
