Earlier this year, received the Next Gen- Study Visit Grant from the Volvo Research and Education Foundation (VREF). This grant is awarded to emerging scholars in the field of mobilities to conduct comparative research. As part of this award, this October Nisha was hosted for 20 days at Kenyatta University, Nairobi, to undertake research exploring the intersections of walking, gender, labour and informality. This study builds upon and extends her ongoing PhD research at IIT Bombay, that looks at the walking and mobility patterns of women domestic workers in Mumbai.
