Episode 56: Working with Waria — A Conversation with Dr. Sandeep Nanwani (Repeat)

We don’t have a new episode this week as Swedian is out on a personal affair, so we have a repeat of our 38th episode, Working with Waria, where Stephanie talks with Dr. Sandeep Nanwani about his experience working with the waria community in Indonesia. We’ll be back in two weeks’ time with a brand new episode, so stay tuned! ----------------------- In this episode, Stephanie chats with Dr. Sandeep Nanwani, a young Indonesian doctor who is currently getting his Master's degree in Global Health Delivery at Harvard Medical School, about his work with the "waria" community — translated imperfectly as transgender women. Sandeep has been working with this community primarily by providing access to health care for them and other marginalized and invisible voices in the streets of Indonesia. We talked about how in order to understand the waria and their stories, you have to also understand both the social and the economic circumstances that impact their everyday lives, from their daily poverty to the informal economics of sex work & street busking that has come to define them. We also chatted about Sandeep's own journey into becoming a doctor and what led him to his current focus on researching cases of extreme mental illnesses among the homeless in Indonesia. Finally, we talked about how politically things have gotten more difficult for the "waria" as well as the wider LGBT community. We're excited to share Sandeep's story and the stories of the waria.
