Her Space: A Sanctuary for Voices
—Sarita Kumari Dahal
Welcome to Her Space, a safe haven created by LOOM for young women and queer activists to share stories, experiences, and the rich history of the Nepali women’s movement. Since 2010, this space has empowered individuals to feel secure from the challenges and threats that come with raising their voices for justice and equality.
What is Her Space?
Her Space is more than just a physical place. It’s a vibrant safe space and a platform for feminists to come share their experience of their feminist journey through our programs like Guff Gaff and Multigenerational Dialogues. It’s where campaigners and changemakers come together to work, collaborate, and contribute to the movement for women’s rights and gender equality.
What Can You Do Here?
In Her Space, you’ll find an incredible collection of books and resources on women’s rights movements from around the globe, stories of resilience from Nepali women, research reports on the queer community and transgender men, and so much more! This is a space to write your own story, reflect on the journeys of others, and build connections with like-minded souls.
A Place for Discussion, Ideas, and Action
Her Space is where ideas take flight! It’s designed to be a meeting ground for young women and the queer community to discuss, debate, and create solutions to the challenges they face. Whether you’re organizing an event, brainstorming new ideas, or simply sharing your thoughts, this space is all about amplifying your voice.
Break Free, Be Bold, and Speak Out
In a world that still tries to silence the voices of women and marginalized communities, Her Space stands as a symbol of freedom. It’s a place where you can speak your truth, find empowerment, and connect with others who are breaking down societal barriers. Let Her Space be your sanctuary of self-expression, where the chains of societal expectations are shattered, and your voice roars.
A Home for Knowledge
As one of LOOM’s core initiatives, Her Space is also a hub for learning and growth. We proudly offer a mini-library filled with inspiring books on sexuality education, feminist movements, and intersectional experiences. Dive in, explore, and let your mind expand!
Why Her Space?
Because your voice matters. Her Space was created to give young women and the queer community a platform where they can speak without fear, find solidarity, and be part of a collective effort to make lasting change. This is ‘her’ space, where your stories become part of a larger movement for justice, equality, and freedom.
