    Vidhi Beyond Marriage Equality - Conversation with Koyel Ghosh

    Vidhi Beyond Marriage Equality - Conversation with Koyel Ghosh

    In this series of conversations, the Vidhi Centre for Legal Policy speaks with queer academics, lawyers, and activists on marriage equality and beyond. The series touches upon the relationship between queer movements and the law, the need for community consultation, the importance of legal recognition to intimacies beyond marriage, demands of the transgender community, and the future of family law in India.

    The second conversation on Vidhi Beyond Marriage Equality is with Koyel Ghosh, a gender non-conforming, non-binary queer feminist activist and the Managing Trustee of Sappho for Equality. In this conversation, Koyel throws light on the motivation behind Sappho for Equality's decision to participate in the marriage equality matter before the Supreme Court of India and why the law must also extend legal recognition and protection to atypical and chosen families, beyond marriage.
