La desigualdad estructural derivada de una larga historia de discriminaci\u00f3n es end\u00e9mica en la India, pero las organizaciones de la sociedad civil est\u00e1n inspirando a una nueva generaci\u00f3n para transformar esta realidad, especialmente en lo que respecta a las mujeres j\u00f3venes y las ni\u00f1as.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\n\n\u00a0<\/span>El <\/span>Fundaci\u00f3n YP<\/span><\/a> (TYPF) lleva m\u00e1s de dos d\u00e9cadas formando a j\u00f3venes en liderazgo feminista y basado en los derechos. Como socio de A F\u00f2s Feminista, TYPF recluta a j\u00f3venes l\u00edderes de toda la India para que aborden cuestiones relacionadas con la salud, el g\u00e9nero, la sexualidad y la justicia con sus compa\u00f1eros, comunidades y responsables pol\u00edticos.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\n\n\u202f<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>Una de estas l\u00edderes es Kehkasha Sheikh. Esta joven de 22 a\u00f1os proviene de una familia musulmana de Nizamuddin, un barrio de bajos ingresos de Nueva Delhi donde viven principalmente dalits, un grupo marginado por la estructura de castas de la India. Kehkasha vive con sus padres, cuatro hermanas y dos primos, y le apasiona la educaci\u00f3n, especialmente las ciencias sociales.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\n\n\u00a0<\/span>M\u00e1s de un tercio de las ni\u00f1as de la India abandonan la escuela antes de completar su educaci\u00f3n secundaria. Las j\u00f3venes adolescentes que abandonan la escuela sufren una serie de consecuencias: matrimonios forzados, falta de herramientas para cuidar de su propia salud, mayores \u00edndices de violencia dom\u00e9stica y sexual, incapacidad para encontrar trabajo con el que mantenerse a s\u00ed mismas y a sus familias, entre otras. Esa es una de las razones por las que Kehkasha considera que la educaci\u00f3n es el camino para alcanzar un mayor conocimiento, libertad y movilidad, y quiere poder financiar los estudios de sus hermanas menores. Tambi\u00e9n le gusta trabajar directamente con ni\u00f1as que provienen de entornos marginados como el suyo y utiliza sus propias experiencias vividas para conectar con ellas a un nivel m\u00e1s profundo.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\n\n\u00a0<\/span>TYPF trabaja para garantizar que los j\u00f3venes de la India, como Kehkasha, tengan oportunidades para liderar y dirigir su propio desarrollo y crecimiento con el fin de hacer realidad sus aspiraciones.<\/span>\u202f<\/span> \u00a0<\/span>\n\nKehkasha ha codirigido los cursos de formaci\u00f3n de la TYPF desde 2017, pero ella misma comenz\u00f3 como participante. Su primer contacto con la Fundaci\u00f3n fue una intervenci\u00f3n que permiti\u00f3 a adolescentes y j\u00f3venes comprometerse con los valores, derechos y deberes constitucionales y ponerlos en pr\u00e1ctica a trav\u00e9s de un juego basado en tareas. Esto se convirti\u00f3 en una oportunidad para interactuar con personas de todos los \u00e1mbitos de la vida en la India y examinar c\u00f3mo las identidades y los contextos influ\u00edan en la vulnerabilidad y la marginaci\u00f3n de las personas.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\n
\u201cLa igualdad no es igual para todos, por lo que es importante trabajar constantemente para lograrla\u201d.\u201d <\/span><\/blockquote>\nKehkasha se\u00f1al\u00f3. Luego se uni\u00f3 a un grupo de l\u00edderes comunitarios que llevaron a cabo una auditor\u00eda de seguridad y accesibilidad en sus propios barrios de Delhi. El grupo involucr\u00f3 a las autoridades c\u00edvicas y a los miembros de la comunidad para hacer que el espacio fuera m\u00e1s amigable para los j\u00f3venes y equitativo en cuanto al g\u00e9nero.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\n\n\u00a0<\/span>Kehkasha continu\u00f3 trabajando con el programa de educaci\u00f3n sexual de TYPF, implementando un plan de estudios para adolescentes de entre 14 y 18 a\u00f1os. Ha mantenido una estrecha relaci\u00f3n con sus compa\u00f1eros hasta el d\u00eda de hoy y es reconocida como l\u00edder por sus compa\u00f1eros y los miembros de la comunidad.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\n
\u201cFue dif\u00edcil convencer a mis pap\u00e1s de que me dejaran trabajar en el terreno y luchar por mi independencia. Pero siempre me han gustado los retos\u201d.\u201d <\/span><\/blockquote>\nAunque antes de participar en el TYPF apenas hab\u00eda salido de su zona residencial, ahora trabaja y viaja mucho dentro y fuera de la capital. Utiliz\u00f3 su beca para invertir en su propia educaci\u00f3n y actualmente est\u00e1 cursando una maestr\u00eda en Historia.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\n\n\u202f<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>Durante la primera ola de COVID-19, Kehkasha estuvo al frente de la identificaci\u00f3n y atenci\u00f3n de las necesidades de su comunidad. Organiz\u00f3 grupos de discusi\u00f3n, moviliz\u00f3 fondos y distribuy\u00f3 art\u00edculos esenciales en el momento \u00e1lgido de la pandemia.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\n\n\u00a0<\/span>Es una facilitadora eficaz y aporta una perspectiva novedosa a todo su trabajo, ya sea hablando de temas relacionados con su contexto personal o inventando juegos para mantener el inter\u00e9s de los participantes, y cree que escucharse unos a otros puede propiciar el cambio social.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>","":null,"anchor_id":""}}]},"yoast_head":"\nFrom Learning to Leading: Young Women and Girls in India -
