Hosted by Asia 21 Leader Savera Weerasinghe (Sri Lanka), the first season features Nighat Dad (Pakistan), Anurupa Roy (India), Indira Ranamagar (Nepal), Namgay Zam (Bhutan), and Omaid Sharifi (Afghanistan). The conversations give us an insight into the lives of these amazing Asia 21 Leaders, as Savera talked about their childhoods, the people and places that have influenced them the most, the challenges they have faced in becoming the leaders they are today, the power of communities and community-building, and what they think should be the future for South Asia.

We would like to extend a special thanks to Yusra Askari (Asia 21 Class of 2014), and Sanjeev Sherchan (Executive Director, Global Initiatives, Asia Society) for being the guiding beacon for the first season of Samavāya.
