At Studio Nilima, through our efforts we have tried to highlight the lack of adequate health facilities in the correctional spaces of Assam. Read Anubhab Atreya’s discussion with Nisha Susan of The Third Eye on public health in the correctional spaces of Assam.

The major purpose of correctional homes is not only to detain the offenders but also to provide them with proper rehabilitation and make them ready to be reintegrated into the society...

Today we feature Pushpanjali Medhi, Researcher at Studio Nilima. She started off as a 'Student Ambassador' in 2016.

Her work here, with correctional spaces has contributed immensely to her understanding on how systemic violence works to further oppression, and connecting theory, or disconnecting 'learned theory', from everyday reality.

In people behind the scenes, today we have Anubhab Atreya Project Associate at Studio Nilima.

It is his dream that the work being done at Studio Nilima will help to carry the voices of the grassroots into the policy process of the State and inspire other similar spontaneous interventions. “The process to ensure this happens,” he says “is tremendously challenging but equally rewarding and that is what keeps me motivated every day”.
