The common approach to living nowadays includes little concern for how our lifestyle habits affect the world. Do your part! Cycle to work; use a tote bag when grocery shopping; take pride in wearing that one new clothing item from an ethical source! #SustainableSundays

Pt. 4.2. Thank you for staying tuned! We hope you learnt as much as we did this week, and we offer a prayer of healing to those who have been effected by this as well as those who are still suffering as a result of it, with a special thought to the people of Kashmir.

Passing down gold jewellery through generations from mother to daughter holds huge sentimental value & symbolic representation of one’s legacy. Seen as a form of investment & feminism - this is how mothers maintained a matriarchy in a strongly patriarchal world! 📸: farahkhad
