DivHersify!

By Audio Pervert - 2/20/2022

 


After a brief hiatus in 2021, FEMWAV is back with a series of interventions and empowerment based events. The new direction, we are told is to "create new pathways, especially for new talent from India" and "educate and collectivize audiences, venues, artists and organizers about women's safety".  FEMWAV is putting out new events called DivHersify. A virtual convergence of dedicated young female musicians and professionals from India. A series of virtual conferences, starting 6th March, celebrating International Women's Day 2022. As a non-profit empowerment network for female talent from India, FEMWAV has constantly amplified female voices, music, research and opinions during the last three years, reaching out to new audiences as well contributors. Hence, it's time to intervene and act, while we divhersify!

The short introduction about DivHersify put out by FEMWAV says "We keep asking the compelling questions. We keep pushing the agenda... We persist, intervene and take action. Our work is never over!" Curated by Ananya Roy, the objective at the heart of DivHersify is to empower new female talent, while creating new pathways - enable much needed dialogue and action, between the guest speakers and the audience. "The events will be open to public, and we expect the audience to engage with the guest speakers, crossing various points - addressing the obvious challenges, structural injustices - plus new ways of self-empowering female artists. Harness new ecosystems emerging... expect a melee of opinions, viewpoints, key figures and actual bonding!" states Ananya Roy.
