Through our journey of measuring collectivisation and interacting with grantmakers, collectives and measurers across the globe, we have documented our learnings to capture the diverse conversations and insights that we built on along the way. The section below delves into a few of these conversations that we explored by way of blogs as well as webinars.
I. Book Club
The Sindhanai Book Club is a space for collective thinking and critical exploration. Rooted in the spirit of dialogue, it brings together practitioners, researchers, and community members to reflect on texts that challenge dominant paradigms and provoke new ways of seeing. Our purpose here is not to settle on answers but to open up spaces for critical thought, to explore these ideas collectively, and to share perspectives on how we can use these insights to hold space for uncertainty, complexity, and multiple truths.
Through curated readings and conversations, we aim to connect theory with lived experience, and use these engagements to question entrenched systems and hierarchies in development, research, and evaluation. Each session is an invitation to listen, reflect, and respond—to think together about how knowledge is produced, who it serves, and how it can be reclaimed.
We see this as an evolving dialogue, and we invite you to join us. Share your thoughts, raise questions, bring your contexts—and let’s think our way forward, together.
