Through the lens of her lived experiences and research on the gender politics of music in Chitrali Khow culture, Mehrosh sheds light on the stories that often remain unseen and unheard. This session will explore the ethical complexities of representing marginalized voices in visual storytelling—especially within research contexts.

“Research is not just about data, it’s about people, place, and ethics.”
Reflecting on an insightful session with Oxford PhD candidate Abdul Wahid Khan, who reminded us that working with marginalised communities means listening deeply, collaborating ethically, and valuing indigenous wisdom.
Grateful for the knowledge shared and the questions sparked.
