About Devika Anand

I started my journey in the education space as a Teach for India Fellow in Delhi from 2020-22. Since then I have worked with diverse Indian organisations in the development sectors in full-time and part-time roles to contribute to the dimensions of gender-inclusive education. I currenly work as a Program Manager with Alokit in Hyderabad, working with government school principals and eco-systems to create gender-inclusive schools. Apart from that, I also volunteer as the Knowledge Head at Teach For All’s Global LGBTQ+ Pride Network to provide support for inclusive classrooms. Through the One Future Fellowship I found my calling for social justice and intersectionality in the work I do day-to-day. I strongly believe that with a cup of coffee, some poetry and a lot of eccentric passion, anything can be changed and thus I try to upskill myself towards building more inclusive, feminist spaces.
