Roop SenRoop Sen is a researcher at heart who is passionate about asking questions--the right questions that allow better and deeper insights and, sometimes, delightful answers. Roop has always been curious about how our gender identities, scial norms and power structures impact the lives and opportunities available to different groups of men and women and the non-binaries.

In his engaging conversations, whether over endless cups of coffee with friends or at his workshops, he facilitates inquiry into how our childhood experiences and primary relationships shape our lenses for looking at ourselves and others, in organizations and society.

He is a founding member of Sanjog, a non-profit, and Change Mantras, a consulting firm. As an activist, he supports people's movements against gender-based violence in society and the organized crime that profits from it. As an organizational consultant, he works with client systems in India and other cultures on gender, organizational culture and identity politics to strengthen resilience in organizations.

Roop is a fellow of Sumedhas, an organization that delves into the human context, where he co-anchors the Gender and Identity Lab with Sarbani Gomes and Ashok Malhotra. 'From being an activist whose lens on gender was focused on gender-based violence, the labs have been a great learning experience on learning to look at ourselves with compassion without collusion, ' says Roop.

The one who asks questions does not lose the way. And with this book, Roop's pursuit is to evoke and provoke questions and discussions on issues that may be currently blurred but need to be moved into the spotlight so that we do not really lose the way home to a gender-just world for all.
