The Looking Glass is a multimedia ethnographic research project under the ambit of the Education, Justice, and Memory Network (EdJAM).

At the core of the project is a framework that explores power and gender as a category of analysis of the world around us. We applied this theoretical framework to case studies of the lived experiences, heritage, history, and experiences of violence of different minoritised and marginalised gender communities in Pakistan to understand the use and abuse of power.

Screening and discussion

Docuseries premiere of The Looking Glass, a 6-episode limited series that explores the themes of power, gender, and history with case studies of gender minorities in Pakistan, followed by a discussion on gender diversity and governance in Pakistan, and alternative methodologies and mediums for decolonizing research
