This project addresses the social challenges faced by queer South Asians—particularly the lack of culturally relevant, accessible, and affirming educational resources. Rather than relying solely on traditional in-person programming, this project embraced a digital-first approach in creating the Desi Queer Online Learning Hub – making resources available to anyone, anywhere, anytime.
