Tribute to Sharit Bhowmik

By on September 01, 2016

Renana Jhabvala, Chair of WIEGO Board, writes a tribute to WIEGO ally and colleague Sharit Bhowmik.

 

"Sharit’s advocacy went far beyond research. He began working with the vendors organizations, especially in Mumbai and Kolkata. He became the bridge between the organizations and the city authorities, between the vendors and the consumers, between the city planners and the vendors’ networks. He amplified the vendors voice by writing in newspapers, attending civil society meetings, arguing with municipal authorities."
