Mumbai Studio: A Catalyst for Change
Sinhayana Foundation has been able to establish a studio in Mumbai, Goregaon East, to serve as a hub for its operations. This studio :
• Acts as a central point for initiatives such as Right To Dance and Slum 2 Stage.
• Provides legitimacy and credibility among stakeholders and beneficiaries.
