Телеведущая и журналист Ләйлә Сұлтанқызы больше четверти века работает в сфере телевидения. Начиная свой путь на радиостанции, где она одной из первых ротировала, а точнее боролась за ротацию песен на казахском, Ләйлә за несколько лет успела стать директором первого детского телеканала "Балапан" на казахском языке, и стать ведущей телепрограммы "Әйел бақыты", где обсуждались острые и важные темы для женщин. Для нас честь провести беседу с Ләйлә Сұлтанқызы, чтобы обсудить ее журналистский опыт. Начиная разговор со знакомства с внутренним миром телеиндустрии, мы обсуждаем умерла ли эпоха телевидения; как удерживать зрителя перед телевизором; и как сделать так, чтобы казахоязычный контент встал в один ряд с зарубежным. Последняя тема приводит к воспоминаниям о телевидении 90-00х, когда казахоязычного контента было мало и как ситуация изменилась за последние несколько лет. Середина 10-х в казахстанском телевидении ознаменовывает этап ухода от табуированных тем, мы приходим к открытости и обсуждению проблем. Одной из важных передач этого времени становится "Әйел бақыты", на которой Ләйлә Сұлтанқызы обсуждала с героинями шоу бытовые и социальные проблемы женщин в обществе. У казахских женщин появились голос и отдушина, через которую они могли находить себя. Это и подтолкнуло нас к темам материнства, закона о запрете пропаганды ЛГБТ и разговоров с детьми на табуированные темы. Теперь, после долгих лет ведения программы и потери супруга, Ләйлә Сұлтанқызы открыла Фонд Mariyam, где помогает семьям завести ребёнка с помощью ЭКО. Вопреки всем мифам, связанным с ЭКО и культа мужчин в нашем обществе, наша сегодняшняя гостья за короткое время уже помогла больше 40 семьям завести детей. Так как этот выпуск один из первых больших интервью Ләйлә после потери супруга, мы не могли не обсудить тему одиночества и роли одиноких матерей, которые в итоге берут на себя роль мужчины в семье. К концу эпизода мы возвращаемся к истокам журналистского пути Ләйлә Сұлтанқызы, а именно когда она познакомилась с Батырханом Шукеновым. Вспоминая Батыра, мы говорим об его наследии, творческом пути и влиянии на целые поколения. Мы благодарим Ләйлә Сұлтанқызы за обмен опытом с молодым поколением. Для нас это большая честь. Much Love!

Mariyam: Dar Omma A country home in Makthar Green rolling hills, apple and cherry trees, these images are not what you would expect to find in Tunisia. But in the northeast of the country, an ancient little town called Makthar doesn't fit within the normal picture of Tunisia. About 3 hours west of Tunis, Myriam and her partner Kareem are managing a small country home nestled in the green wheat fields. I took some time to explore the area, eat some good food and find out the motivation for Myriam to come back to Tunisia and manage a country home so far from the beaten path. Next to a crackling fire,r I picked up on a subtle but powerful emotion. Hope is the heartbeat of this episode.
From the Obama “birther” movement in the United States to the fringe politicians who believe congestion pricing in London is part of an international “socialist plot,” it is no exaggeration to say that conspiracy theories have become part of the standard political playbook the world over.But when it comes to outlandish conspiracy theories, India stands out as a country where such tales are driving everyday political conversations in a major way. Buoyed by politicians, the media, and social media forwards, they have come to be accepted as reality by many people.A new book, Love Jihad and Other Fictions: Simple Facts to Counter Viral Falsehoods, takes aim at these conspiracy theories, subjecting them to strict journalistic scrutiny using ground reporting, data, and a bit of common sense. The authors—Sreenivasan Jain, Mariyam Alavi, and Supriya Sharma—are veteran journalists with a long track record of ground reporting.On this week's show, Mariyam and Supriya join Milan on the show to talk about the book. The trio discuss allegations of “love jihad,” rumors of widespread religious conversions, and claims of “minority appeasement.” Plus, the three discuss what lessons this book holds for journalism and civic discourse more generally.Episode notes:1.

In this episode of Scouting for Growth, Sabine VdL interviews Naby Mariyam, CEO of Coverhero an insurance platform that provides cover for all types of gig economy hustle. The first product delivered by Coverhero, Hustlecover.com was recently launched to fill the gap of financial insecurity for the growing gig economy and self-employed generation. KEY TAKEAWAYS Before setting up Coverhero, the last two startups I did were in the gig economy and supply chain, so I have a bit of experience in building marketplaces and gig economy-based platforms. I launched Australia's first ride-share platform, Ridehero, and a last-mile delivery platform, ZipMate. Before transitioning into tech I was a social scientist in academia for about 15 years. It's very humbling to go into a whole different industry where you don't know how it's done after being an expert in academia. In my area, I was at the top, and then to go to a completely different industry and started from the bottom was deeply humbling. This is core to my existence, to who I am, I have to fight through these barriers pretty much every single day: I left the Maldives to move to another country and started over. I then decided to get into tech, tick all of the diversity boxes and fought those biases. And to build what we have built at Coverhero is a huge accomplishment. There's no other way for us but to build a customer-centric business. This is what was truly weird when I first started talking to insurance industry executives who design products around the actuaries or the loss/expense ratios, it's very product-centered rather than customer-centric. I then learned how broken the supply chain of insurance is and that got me really excited because I really love solving non-sexy, complex supply chain problems. I wanted to find out how we build a product that customers actually wanted, as well as determine how we acquire customers, and retain them at a lower cost. Our philosophy is to build a really valuable piece of software that connects the insurer to distribution. There were a couple of things that led us to take this direction. When we first started we wanted to go direct to consumers and acquire customers that way, but along the way, we realized that to build a company that can dominate a category you need to find a gap, then define, refine and refine again this new category. The category that we define is "work integrated life cover", which is for someone who has finished university and who decided to go into the workforce as a self-employed. BEST MOMENT ‘I wasn't really interested in insurance, but I had a life-changing experience where I got really sick and we had an insurance claim rejected. That process led me to be curious enough to think “why is this so difficult? Why can't it be as simple as booking an Uber?”' ‘To leave academia to jump into the startup world was an existential crisis, I think.'‘I've always been passionate about creating equity and opportunity for people that don't have access to networks, this is something the world needs to do a lot more of.'‘The last four years I've been in the space I've seen a lot of money being invested into ideas that may or may not work, and the bar that's being set by the insurance industry is very different from the bar that is set for a startup that is not from the InsurTech industry.' ABOUT THE GUEST Naby Mariyam says: Graduating with a Master of Philosophy in Management at the age of 22, I have had 18 years of experience in a wide range of industries across Senior level positions spanning Academia (Business studies, Research Methodology and Design), Management Consulting, Documentary production, Travel & Destination Marketing, and Technology. Naby's Research background is in social science where she deeply studied human behavior in her Academic career. Naby is currently taking a break from her PhD to focus on building technology-driven solutions that solve community problems. Naby shares that she is not a new face to the startup scene in Australia, with a number of her own startups, and Business ventures working closely with founders and catalysts of innovation in the Australian Startup Ecosystem in the last 8 years. Naby advised the United Nations Development Project on building start-up ecosystems and designed accelerator programs to drive innovation in developing Nations. Naby was an Australian delegate at the G20 Young Entrepreneurs conference in Berlin in 2017. Naby is a Keynote speaker, commentator, thought leader, and advocate for diversity of thought in the financial services and technology sector. She loves salsa dancing, poetry, and InsurTech (in that order). When Naby is not exploring her side hustles, she runs Coverhero, an embedded InsurTech startup focusing on revolutionizing insurance services focusing on the needs of Millennials and Gen Z. Coverhero Launched its first product www.hustlecover.com to fill the gap of financial insecurity for the growing Gig Economy and self-employed generation, and its smart home insurance API www.lucci.io in 2021.

In this episode, Main Bhi Muslim's producer and host, Mariyam Haider, speaks with Dr Tahera Shaikh, Pune-based researcher and author who has spent a key part of her research life documenting the lives and contributions of Savitribai Phule and Fatima Sheikh, 19th century India's social and educational reformers. In this episode, Dr Tahera shares her findings and understanding of Fatima Sheikh's role in contributing towards Savitribai and Jyotirao Phule's causes, while at the same time, breaking down prejudices that plagued the then Muslim and larger Indian community. We discuss their comradeship, its uniqueness within the pantheon of India's social reformers, and how their approaches towards making education accessible across all segments of the society should continue to be adopted within modern India's schooling.This interview has been edited for clarity. English transcript below:Mariyam Haider, Host: Hello Dr Tahera Shaikh. Thank you for joining us at Main Bhi Muslim's podcast. Thank you for sparing time to talk about a great personality. I welcome you to Main Bhi Muslim. Tahera Shaikh, Guest: Thank you Mariyam Haider. Thank you for having me on the program and giving me an opportunity to share my thoughts. Thank you. Mariyam: Dr. Tahera, first tell us something about yourself. Share with us as to how you developed interest in the life of Fatima Sheikh. How did you study Fatima Sheikh and how did you conduct your research to write on her?Shaikh: My name is Shaikh Tahera Abdushakur. I live in Pune. My father Abdusshakur is from Usmanabad. My mother Maimuna Begam comes from Karnataka (Banglore). My paternal grandfather was a farmer. My maternal grandfather was Hafiz and Alim. My father is a businessman. He is not much educated. He is matriculate only. But my maternal family was an educated family. My Khalu was an Alim and he has authored books also. Hence, I have been interested in education since my childhood. In Pune, first I started teaching in a school situated in Mominpura. In that school, once a decision was taken to name the newly built hall after Fatima Bi. Before that I had not heard the name of Fatima Bi at all. Thereafter, I started reading about her. Although I had read a few articles about Savitribai Phule, I knew nothing about her (Fatima Shaikh). When we celebrate the birth and death anniversaries of great personalities, we require gathering basic facts about them (to educate the students). Therefore, when we searched material on Savitribai Phule we could only find a few articles. We could not find any book. Then, we (I and my friend Nasrin Ramzan; we had jointly authored two books earlier) decided that we would work on this topic. Since I am settled in Pune, therefore I have studied Marathi till Class X. So, I did not face any difficulty in reading Marathi and Hindi books. Thus, I first began collecting materials. I visited libraries or any other place I knew I could get something from. I stored them on my laptop and then started working on it. I thought I would first write a book about her personal and social life etc. I was of the view that people should know what she had done for our society. You won't believe that at first I had decided to write just a piece of article on her of not more than 10 pages. But eventually I ended up writing 150 pages. Therefore, I decided to publish this in the form of a book. Meanwhile, my friend Nasrin decided to work on “Kavyaphule” of Savitribai Phule [collection of poems written by Savitribai Phule, published in 1854]. Thus, I continued my work. And, the book was published on 3rd January, 2015. I had deliberately chosen 3rd January to release the book, because it happens to be the birthday of Savitribai Phule. A hall named after Savitribai Phule was built in Pune. I released the book in that hall only. Thus, a book—a kind of biography—on her came in the public domain. On the other hand, the work on Fatima Shaikh, also began especially. You won't believe, I visited every nook and corner in Pune to meet elderly persons who had any knowledge vis-à-vis Fatima Shaikh. But I hardly got anything in writing i.e. any evidence which can be used as reference in the book, because readers would rely on whatever I would write as there was no book on her prior to this one. Therefore, I was very concerned and particular about it while adding things. Unlike Fatima Shaikh, there are plenty of materials and books available on Savitribai Phule and we know basic things about her— for instance when was she born; when did she get married, when did she come to Pune, when did she start her study and when did she start imparting education to children. But on Fatima Sheikh, very little things were available. Therefore, keeping in view the fact that whatever I would write the same would be used as a reference by the readers, I decided to write only after extensive research and examination. For two to three years, I continued collecting materials and studying them. And, in the meantime, I developed an interest in the idea that people should and must know about a Muslim lady who accompanied Savitribai Phule. As people say had there not been Munshi Ghaffar Baig there would not have been Jyotiba Phule or he would not have been a Mahatma. Thus, Alhamdulillah, finally I succeeded in publishing a book. I was happy eventually. Then, everyone (including writers of Marathi, English and Kannada), started reading it and using reference. Thus, I have had interest in writing articles and books since childhood. First of all, I had written and published a book in 2007. It was a collection of short stories for children. Then, I also wrote a novel, stories for children, short stories etc. I also visited the village of Savitribai Phule . I heard that Savitribai Phule and Fatima Bi had gone to Ahmad Nagar for Teachers' Training. There I tried to find out some facts in the old registers etc. so as to get facts vis-à-vis date of birth etc. But I did not find any old material or solid evidence. What Savitribai has written about her in the book has only travelled forward. In addition to that, she has mentioned about her several times. For example, in some programme she (Savitribai) has mentioned that Fatima is with me right now. Likewise, somewhere she has mentioned that she has come to her paternal home in Naya Gaon and she is not worried about Pune because Fatima is there. Thus, it appears that she (Fatima Shaikh) used to be with her (Savitribai Phule) continuously and both worked together. Mariyam: In reference to what you were mentioning about your visits to different places for your research, I would like to know from you that what is the biggest challenge we have in the 21st century vis-à-vis girl education in comparison to the challenges Fatima Sheikh and Savitribai Phule would have faced during their movement in the 19th century for educating girls and to establish schools for them?Shaikh: In those times also girls used to get education. Savitribai Phule was born in 1830. But in that time, colleges and universities had been established in Northern India. Girls were also getting education. And, in other countries too (if we see in reference to Muslims), colleges and universities had been established in big cities and towns and girls were receiving education. In Pune too, in 1820, English had established schools; a Marathi school had also been established. But what is significant is that these schools were very costly. Poor people were not capable of affording the fees of such schools. Only rich children were going to such schools. Savitribai Phule came from a weaker section of the society and this was also the reason why she realized the fact that education was accessible only for the rich. She realized the fact that as to how people who had to struggle for every day's meal would afford such a costly education; therefore she thought that such schools should be established for them wherein children can receive education free of cost. As I discussed earlier, Jyotiba had received education from an English school and when his wife also showed interest in getting education he got her admitted in school. But, when his wife stepped out to teach, his father got angry and ultimately he expelled them from his house. But no one gave shelter to them in the society. No one in the society had the courage to head on the society or fight against the value system of that time. At such a crucial time, his friend Usman Sheikh showed courage and let them stay in his house. Usman Sheikh's Sister Fatima Sheikh also supported him (Jyotiba Phule) like her brother wholeheartedly and allowed the Phule couple to stay with them. The Phule couple had been expelled from their home empty-handed. Therefore, we can imagine the amount of help they would have needed. However, after some time, Jyotiba told them he would not sit idly; he said he wanted to establish schools. Usman Sheikh extended his help to Phule immediately. To begin with, he donated his own land [bada] to establish a school. Not only that, several other Muslims also donated their lands (at that time Muslim constituted six per cent of Pune's population) for establishing schools. Those schools exist even today. At that time, first schools were established for adult education. Interestingly, within a span of two years only, more than twenty schools were established. Even English were not so fast; nor the Marathi society of that time. They had limited resources in terms of money as well as teachers. Thus, Savitribai and Fatima Sheikh began their work. They also taught children free of cost because Joytiba Phule had no money to pay. Here the role of Fatima Bi is worth discussing. She stood for a society and a community she did not belong to. The family/society Fatima Bi belonged to was not averse to education. If I may say so, in the family of Muslims, education for girls was allowed since beginning i.e. since the birth of Prophet Muhammad. Rather, receiving education was mandatory for all—male as well female. Hence, Fatima Sheikh herself was educated. However, since Savitribai Phule had stepped out of her home and had decided to fight against the society for the sake of people who were downtrodden and in consequence to which people were upset with her (Savitribai), therefore she (Fatima Sheikh) extended her solidarity to her friend Savitribai Phule wholeheartedly. And, she also stepped out of her home, along with Savitribai Phule, to teach the children who belonged to weaker sections of the society. Mariyam: Had Fatima Sheikh and her brother faced any kind of challenge within their own society i.e. Muslim community in that point of time when they decided to extend their support to Savitribai Phule?Shaikh: It was the end of the 19th century. We know that it was the period of political turmoil. Some people were against Britishers. However, there were also many great leaders—like Jyotiba and others—who were influenced by English education. They were also getting benefit from this. Also, this very education made them prudent enough and they could think of getting freedom. Thus, the new education was impacting people. At that time, it was certainly a matter of concern amongst the Muslim community that why they (Sheikh brother and sister) were heading on with the society for others; why they were making enemies for the sake of others. But what is significant to note is that their friendship (between Sheikh brother and sister and Phule couple) was very strong. They (Sheikh brother and sister) considered what Phule couple was doing a pious work and therefore they saw no reason not to help them. Hence, they showed courage at that time and stood by them openly. No doubt, people harassed them several times. People even pelted stones at them and hurled abuses. But, they did not give up. And, many schools were opened one after another. Within two years, a chain of 20 to 25 schools came into being in Pune/Maharashtra. Then, people also developed interest in sending their girls for education. People also came forward because these schools gave education to girls in lieu of a meager fee. They (Phule couple) visited the households and persuaded them (people) to educate their girls. Further, at that time, people would not assemble easily. Hence, they (Phule couple) used to gather them in the name of one or another religious and social programme and in such programmes they used to lecture them (people) about education. They used to tell them (people) the benefit of education. They would convince them as to how education would make them wise and free them from slavery. In all these, Fatima Sheikh supported them (Phule couple) wholeheartedly. Now, the question arises as to why Fatima Sheikh did not get as much popularity as she should have? In this regard, I believe it was not an extraordinary thing at that time for a Muslim woman to receive education or teaching others. If we see across India or even outside India, people were receiving education at that time; especially those who belonged to a well off family. Fatima Sheikh also belonged to a well off family. Her family was financially sound and it can be inferred from the fact that her family donated land to Savitribai for establishing school. On the other hand, for Savitribai it became a significant thing because she established schools for the section of society which was neglected. Nobody cared for them. We have read in history that in olden times untouchability was very prevalent. So, at that point of time when people were not even ready to let untouchables sit or stand beside them or touch their water and food, it was indeed very brave of Savitribai to work for them, sit with them and even take pains for them. And, in all these, Fatima Sheikh supported her. Jyotiba was also impressed with the fact that there was no idea of untouchability amongst English/Christians and Muslims. Phule couple saw that no discrimination was being practiced in their religions. Muslim men as well women were allowed to perform Namaz. Likewise, Christian men as well as women were allowed to visit Church. The Phule couple was very perturbed with the fact that as to why so much of evils were prevalent amongst their people (religion)?Therefore, they worked tirelessly. They would visit every household and convince people to bring in change. They would persuade them to work for the freedom of future generations. Mariyam: How did Savitribai and Fatima Sheikh play a role in enhancing the status of 19th century women further in terms of giving representation to them i.e. apart from teachers, women can be social leaders and social activists too? Shaikh: They thought only education was not enough for women. They thought other things had to be taken into consideration as well if women had to be in the front row of every field of life and if they had to be made capable to stand as equals in the society. For example, in those times, widow remarriage was considered to be an evil. People were totally against it. But, they started working on it. Thus, Savitribai started all such works for which the entire society stood against her. She observed the practices of other religions i.e. Islam and Christianity. She saw widow remarriage was not considered an evil practice amongst Muslims and Christians. This perturbed her. This made her angry as to why only women in her community were subjected to such atrocities? She was very pained to see widow ladies living their lives in solitary as untouchables. Hence, she headed the society on all fronts. She did all those works which were against the value system of society at that point in time. She felicitated the remarriage of widow ladies. She opened Asharam for orphaned children. She also arranged things for nurturing the abandoned or children born out of wedlock. Along with schools, she also opened hostels for the children who used to come from remote areas. She also worked for farmers and labourers. In fact, she hardly left any field. She worked for everything and everyone. However, she was obviously an advocate for women empowerment. She believed women should and must come forward in every field. She also firmly believed that people would certainly keep suppressing everyone or anyone (or any society) who is a coward. She was of the view that people should gather courage to speak the truth. People should stand against repression. She believed the atrocity will not stop until and unless we stand against it firmly and speak against it loudly because bearing with the atrocity is tantamount to committing atrocity.Mariyam: In reference to Savitribai inspiring and motivating the society of that time i.e. people should stand for each other and stand for the weaker sections of the society (be it a man or a woman, be it an orphaned child or any other oppressed individual), my question to you is that what do you mean by the society? Is it the society of Pune or a society of a particular category? Shaikh: Different communities were living there. It consisted of the poor as well as the rich. Upper caste people like Marathas were rich and they were receiving education. But labour class people were the ones who were in miserable condition. They were not capable of sending their children to schools. And, the reason was simple. They did not have money to pay the expenses of education. Hence, they (Phule couple) told them about the significance of education. They told them if they wanted to get something they would have to work hard; they would have to receive education. Only education would make them prudent. And only after becoming prudent , they would be able to know their rights and thereafter fight for the same. . For example, in our society, most of the women do not know what their rights are. Hence, you would not be able to fight for them until and unless you are aware of your rights. So they convinced people that they should speak up for their rights; they should fight for their rights. Mariyam: You mentioned that in the society Fatima Sheikh belonged to (Muslim community), girls receiving education was not an unusual phenomenon at that time and perhaps this is why you did not find enough materials on her life. Now, as you know girl education in Muslim societies are being hampered, especially in places like Karnataka in the name of hijab controversy, likewise Taliban (in Afghanistan) have started a new kind of movement under which they are not allowing girls to receive education after a certain age. What do you think about it? We are talking about a personality in whose times girl education was a common thing, and today, despite the fact that everyone is aware of the significance of education, the same is being prohibited for girls. Shaikh: We have given up valuing what is important and what is right for us. We know that our girls have to receive education. On one hand we want our girls to be doctors, engineers and teachers; however, on the other hand, we forget that for the same, girls are required to be given freedom to pursue education. Once God as well as the society has given them the right (for example, Savitribai got the rights of girls approved at societal level) to pursue their education, then who are these people to obstruct them from receiving education? Issues like hijab are purely political stunts. These things cannot embargo the education. From my own experience I can tell you that I have done all my courses—M.A.,M.Ed., B.Ed., NET, PhD—in hijab. There was no ban on hijab in Pune College and Pune University. There was an educational environment at my home too. I had been wearing a hijab since the beginning. I did like it too. And, I did not face any difficulty anywhere. The present hijab controversy is entirely political one. It has been hyped in the media unnecessarily. I believe hijab can never be an impediment in receiving education. If we come to see the pictures of great ladies from our past like Fatima Sheikh, Savitribai, Shivaji Maharaj's mother Jija Bai (although there are very few photos of them)—you will see all of them with aanchal over their heads. In other words, the imagery of Indian women with aanchal over their heads embodies dignity and righteousness. It is distinct. It is of Indianness. It is part of Indian society. And, aforesaid all women were educated. For Savitribai, I think she had a habit of writing things. Perhaps Fatima Bi did not have this habit. Savitribai Phule used to write a diary as well. Her speeches are found in her writings too. Her letters have also been published. In the research which is going on for years, we hope something will certainly be found out. For instance, the school where I teach is 130 years old and we are planning to see the old registers, because at that time both of them—Savitribai and Fatima Sheikh—were alive. So, one thing we have understood that Savitribai used to write things. Hence, from her “kavyaphule” [collection of poetry], speeches, letters and diary, we have got to know various things. Mariyam: When I was in school and when I read about educational revolution in 19th and 20th century, two names were prominently taught, one is of course Raja Ram Mohan Roy (who is credited for abolishing the Sati Pratha), and another is Sir Syed Ahmad Khan from North India. So, later on, when I started reading about Fatima Shaikh, a significant question arose in my mind that as to why we were not taught about Fatima Sheikh and Savitribai Phule in our schools, because when we read about inspirational figures like them and for the fact that they are women, we as girls get a different kind of encouragement and confidence. So as you said your work has been published in Marathi, Kannada as well as Urdu, I wanted to know whether you have written in Hindi or English too?Shaikh: No, no. My works have not been published in Kannada. Kannada writers have given the reference of my book in their own works on Savitribai and Fatima Bi. They contacted me and conveyed it to me. I have also written in Urdu and English. I myself have translated my book in Urdu ‘Qayamat Se Pehle Alamat-e Qyamat' into English. Another book of mine in Urdu is titled ‘Soorah Al-Baqrah'. I have translated this too in English as well as Hindi.Mariyam: I have two more questions for you. Then, I think we will wind up the interview. First, had Savitribai and Fatima Sheikh been alive today, what would they have thought about our society? How do you visualize?Shaikh: See, they talked about three issues of the society cumulatively—social, economic and educational conditions. They also worked to implement their ideas in the society. Had they been alive today, first they would have pained to see the absence of unity which was prevalent in their times. They would have pained to see the division which is prevalent in our society at present. We know that for Jyotiba Phule, his father hired a Persian teacher to learn Persian. Likewise, a teacher was also hired to teach English. So, during that time, hatred was not rampant. People used to accept each other. People used to read the teachings of each other's [religion]. Like many Hindus read Urdu, Muslim studied Hindi, English as well as Marathi. So, hatred was very rare in the society. People used to work together. And, the duo of Fatima Sheikh and Savitribai is an exemplary figure for unity. We know that our Indian culture is in fact a composite culture. My PhD topic is also on this very subject i.e. national integration spanning the period of 1947 to 2000. So, in our composite culture, there are many people, other than Savitribai and Fatima Bi, who have worked together. To bring in reform in the society, many efforts were being made by many enthusiasts. Social reformers were motivating people to get educated and revolt against British imperialism. For example, Raja Ram Mohan Roy, Jyotiba Phule and many such personalities got English education and then they taught people to unite and stand against English imperialism as well as the Jagirdars and Nawabs of our own society who were committing atrocities on us. In a way, they were running a movement to awaken people. Likewise, Savitribai and Fatima Bi worked for education. They also worked for improving economic conditions of the people. They motivated people to work hard and get out of poverty. They started many vocational institutes as well, especially for women. Hence, they worked on many issues and ran many movements. Important thing is that Savitribai used to write what she would do; and therefore many things are available in writing with regard to her works. And, as she has mentioned about Fatima Bi several times, we also know about her. But, the unfortunate thing is that Fatima Bi herself did not write about herself and her works. However, the question arises as to why no one else wrote about her? There was some Urdu magazine which was started for the first time in Pune in the year 1900. This too did not write anything on her. In that way, we would have something in writing as evidence for future generations. We are getting things to know from word of mouth; not many things are in the form of concrete evidence unlike Savitribai about whom many basic things are available in writing. Since Fatima Bi used to be with Savitribai continuously, therefore people are guessing many things about her—like age, date of birth etc. About these duo women, the most important thing is that they were India's first trained teachers. There was a Teacher's Training College in Pune. Jyotiba had got Savitribai enrolled in that college and later on, these women had also gone to Ahmad Nagar. It was a big step to go to a different city for education in those times. And Savitribai's husband supported her wholeheartedly. Mariyam: Since you yourself are an educator, I want to know from you that how would have they (Fatima Shaikh and Savitribai) as educators motivated girls for receiving education? Although you have mentioned that the expensive fee was a big issue at that time for the parents, but how would have they inspired girls and given them a new perspective on life that was not limited to four walls of their homes and that their destiny would change dramatically through education? Shaikh: Be it girl or boy, the best thing at that time was that they had prepared a fantastic syllabus. We know that a similar syllabus is prepared for all the schools—whether they are situated in cities or villages. So was the case at that time too. But they prepared different syllabus for schools situated in remote areas and villages. Likewise, they prepared different syllabus for the schools situated in cities. For instance, for students belonging to remote villages, things were taught keeping in view their exposure. In other words, for example, teaching them about airplanes or trains which they had not seen ever (unlike the children of cities) was not considered feasible for them; and it was held that children may not be able to understand things through such a model of teaching. So, children were taught with examples of things from their own life and milieu which they could relate to. It was done in order to bring them at par with the students belonging to cities who had exposure to various things. So, it was a great idea to make syllabus from this point of view. It is also significant to note that they were not as big scholar as Sir Syed Ahmad Khan, as you just mentioned, or celebrated teachers and professors of big colleges and universities. Mariyam: Do we have access to such syllabus? Do we know as to how they developed it? Or do we have any copy of such syllabus? Shaikh: I have appended a sample of such syllabus in my book. Their first school was established in 1848 and by 1852 they had succeeded in opening more than 25 schools. So it was indeed a great achievement to establish so many schools in such a short span of time. They prepared the syllabus from various points of view. First, they considered age, understanding ability and atmosphere the child is living in. They were of the view that while teaching children; these factors must be kept in mind. Likewise, another factor which they considered while making syllabus is that there should be different syllabuses for students belonging to villages and cities because their understating abilities differ from each other in view of their surroundings and ambiances. Students understand things in consonance with their society and milieu. Also, as we know usually a class consists of different kinds of students in terms of understanding aptitude, therefore another significant thing which was proposed was that a teacher should not drive all the students with one steering. They believed lecturing a class of about 70 children, for example, cannot guarantee that every student would understand what the teacher has taught. They thought that different groups of students—having different levels of understanding ability—should be formed and then they should be taught differently in order to make all of them at par eventually. Hence, such an approach vis-à-vis the syllabus and method of teaching adhered and advocated by Savitribai and Fatima Sheikh, is not only unique but also worth learning.Mariyam: In this connection, I would rather like to say that in the 21st century we are far behind the educational standard of Savitribai and Fatima Sheikh (of 19th century) and their implementation of the same. Many more questions are developing in my mind as you are describing things further. However, because of paucity of time, we will have to wrap up. Thank you Dr Shaikh for taking out time. I really appreciate your works and efforts. You are amongst very few scholars who are spending their energies in documenting the lives and works of great personalities like Savitribai and Fatima Sheikh. You are in fact inspiring many people like us to read our female leaders and learn from them, and also work on bringing in change in the society while espousing their teachings. Shaikh: It is to be noted that there is a dearth of people—no matter how educated and great they are—who come forward with courage and talk about the change which needs to be brought. So, Savitribai and Fatima Bi were of the view that people—men as well as women—must and should gather courage to fight for their rights. Anyways, yes, I succeeded in publishing books on them. Thank you for those encouraging words. I was keenly interested in documenting their lives and works. God also gave me strength. People also appreciated my effort. And, eventually, Maharashtra Academy and Uttar Pradesh Academy also awarded me. Shaikh: Thank you Mariyam, thank you so much for inviting me and giving me the opportunity to share my thoughts.

Naby Mariyam is Founder and CEO of Insuretech Startup Coverhero. Coverhero's mission is to deliver relevant, hyperpersonalised coverage in moments that matter to Millenials lifestyle. We call this moment based coverage for lifestyle and wellbeing. Coverhero is one of the most innovative insurtechs in Australia and New Zealand to watch for in 2018. Coverhero was part of the Qantas Avro Accelerator program. Coverhero was one of the 15 start-ups that got on first ever Tech Crunch start-up Battlefield In Australia. Naby Has 20 years of experience in research, Education, Management consulting and start-ups in the last 5 years. She Represented Australia at the G20 Young Entrepreneurs Summit in Berlin 2017. She is an advocate for Diversity of thought in technology and women in leadership. Highlights from the Show The idea for Coverhero was born out of a claim experience Naby had that did not go well, and left her looking for how to bring Insurance in the modern world The original idea was a recommendation engine, but in 2018, Naby went around the world to talk to insurers, reinsurers, VCs, etc to learn more and be sure what they were building would really solve a real problem Naby's background is from academia as a social scientist researcher, so she used her training to structure how she handled all of these conversations – 200-300 of them globally – using something called Grounded Theory She realized she had a solution, but didn't know what the problem was, so there was no Problem Solution fit She understood the consumer problems, understood the Big Tech trends, but didn't understand the issues within the Insurance industry itself, making it hard to figure out how to solve the overall issues The result was Coverhero's first product, Hustle, which solved a major financial insecurity issue for self-employed people in just 30 seconds They launched in 2020 in Beta, but the pandemic happened, and things didn't work as planned That meant they had to rethink their distribution strategy and channel This clarified what Coverhero is - a platform that embeds insurance across any other platform at the point of sale to empower the platform economy for personal lines of insurance (e.g. income protection, life insurance, home insurance, etc) They seek to put users in the middle so they can find the products they need, when they need them They have big announcements around Hustle in late 2021, and just made some around their smart home API, Luchi This has all come through a lot of iteration and evolution of the idea behind Coverhero as they've learned, tested and grown Rather than being about a specific product or product set, it's about how the intersection of Marketing Technology and Financial Technology can meet people's needs They realized through trying different products, you can't put a Bandaid on things that need re-engineering, so they had to start from scratch Naby sees it like dating, where when you have what people want, you don't have to try to find success Many of the products they had been thinking about would require huge marketing spend to drive demand, which they didn't want to do Once they had the ability to enable insurance sales in other platforms, the platforms approached them, offering low-cost acquisition where there was unmet demand instead of having to drive it They're building a global, universal API to democratize insurance, but not every market is ready for that as not every market is the same in terms of maturity of the gig economy, platform economy, creator economy, passion economy, etc. The platforms themselves are quite mature in Naby's eyes, as are the ways people use them; a major variability in each geography, though, is the regulatory framework Without solving for the needs of the buyer, the seller and the regulator, you won't succeed The shift toward self-employment, which MasterCard sees hitting 50% of all employment globally by 2023, was a trend Naby thinks was already in motion before COVID, but it was sped up Big Tech has allowed people to start a business and go to market in days Social Media allows people to create a following and market what they're doing These things remove barriers to entry and success As more people are self-employed, they need to become more financially and business literate because they can't rely on the corporate HR function at their job anymore, but many resources are coming to market to help with this Special thanks to Duck Creek Technologies and the Conversations on the Creek podcast for sponsoring this episode.

Today I'm speaking with Mariyam Elshrief a UX Designer at ServiceChannel in San Francisco, CA. I first met Mariyam when I interviewed her for a role at Prudential Financial. She was incredibly smart, able to think on her feet, and one of the best interviews I can remember having. That's why I brought her on the show. At the time in her career, she didn't have a ton of experience. What she lacked in professional experience though she made up for in curiosity and a ton of hackathons and personal projects that really showed a scope of knowledge far beyond her years of employment. In this episode Mariyam shares her origin story, switching from a computer science degree to UX Design [5:45]. Her time as a boot camp student at General Assembly [3:00]. Her interviewing preparation tactics [10:30], hackathons [8:50], portfolios [15:00], advice for younger designers [18:50. But most importantly her journey from UX mentee looking for a career to UX mentor guiding others in their own journey [21:29]. It's a great story and I hope you enjoy it.

Many Afghans have witnessed their Afghan culture collide with their western interests as they grew up in a Western society. Sometimes the differences between Afghan and western cultures are interesting and even something to be proud of. However, there can be downsides that impact young Afghans' mental health and support system. Perhaps one of the most debilitating effects of this culture class is the alienation that one may experience by their family members. Mariam jan, host of a German blog called Afghanisch Unverblumt, joined me in this episode of Chai Sabz to discuss the serious repercussions of outcasting and stigmatizing our westernized Afghan counterparts. The episode covers mental health issues and the identity crisis that some Afghans may face as a further result of this alienation. Mariyam jan also discusses her own experience as a young adult who went off to college at the age of 19 and received almost immediate backlash from her extended family members. Today, Mariam jan connects with Afghans of the diaspora on this subject through her blog and is vocal about her thoughts about the Afghan diaspora. Happy Listening!

They discuss the challenges that most Indian women face in their 20s - incuding the pressures to get married, having a ‘settled life', choosing family over career, finding a good ‘Muslim' guy, and living in fears of being unmarried at 30. How far did these fear lead them to make life decisions? How did they recognise these fears and manage them? Have these fears dissolved for good? How can other women across ages tackle such patriarchal expectations?

Mariyam was six when her father, Nurtay, died just before his 34th birthday. Over the next 14 years, she would experience the deaths of four more family members, including her mother, Bagitgul, and maternal grandmother, who both died this past summer during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic in Mariyam's home city in Kazakhstan. Now 20, Mariyam is figuring out how to live without both of her parents. We talk about how COVID complicated everything about grieving these two new deaths. We also cover how well-intentioned phrases like "I can't imagine what you're going through," "You're so strong," and "I could never survive" can be painful to hear. The poem Mariyam reads at the beginning of the episode is "The Mountain" by Laura Ding-Edwards. Follow Mariyam on Instagram @marikoyes

Maandag 12 augustus 2019, Antwerpen Op een regenachtige maandagavond ging ik naar Antwerpen voor een podcast met Mariyam Safi en Joseph Steimetz, allebei zijn ze actief in de politiek en allebei hebben ze een multiculturele achtergrond. Ze zijn het levende bewijs dat politiekers niet sowieso saai zijn. En dat ze zelfs meer dan 3 uur voor een mix van entertainment en serieuze onderwerpen kunnen zorgen. Sidekick Tanguy Kamp zorgde dan weer met zijn lach dat de audio soms overstuur gaat, helaas had ik voor deze aflevering terug geen aparte micro's en kan ik dus Tanguy niet stiller zetten... Ahja, zelfs ik had eens een echte mening in plaats van de occasionele zever. Veel luisterplezier!
