SUMMARY:India Currents Unscripted: Caregiving in Our Own Homes
DESCRIPTION:As India Currents begins work on a new series focused on aging in the Indian immigrant community\, we’re starting from a place that’s deeply personal: our own homes. \nIn this special conversation\, members of our team: Vandana Kumar\, Meera Kymal\, Snigdha Sen and Nandita Bose share their real experiences of caregiving: navigating uncertainty\, balancing work and responsibility\, making decisions without a roadmap\, and holding space for loved ones while figuring things out themselves. \nModerated by Anjana Nagarajan-Butaney. \nIt’s an honest\, behind-the-scenes conversation about what caregiving actually looks like. \nWe invite you as we open up\, reflect\, and begin shaping a larger conversation. \nReserve your spot now!! \n\n\n	Related
