    “For a lot of us in the world we see [menstruation] as biological phenomenon, but there is still a huge population where menstruation is a deterrent to economic productivity, to education [...] that’s the main inspiration: how can we maximise the potential of young girls and women in workspaces and educational spaces” - Soumya on the origins of Project Baala


    “The model came from a very bottoms up approach, everything that we do today in the organisation, is not something that we came up with while sitting in an office space or getting into a board room to discuss what are possible solutions or what could work. In fact it was being exactly where we needed the impact to be, so being in those communities, being in those slums, being in those villages or everything that we are building on as solutions” - Soumya on Project’s Baala’s model


    “You do not have to be extraordinary to do extraordinary things” - Soumya’s TedX quote and philosophy
