Fantastic to be in Dhaka ready for Dhaka Lit Fest tomorrow

"The right to express freely. We firmly believe in artistic freedom & fellowship. So it bears repeating. We are writing history. That's what we are doing here..." Ahsan Akbar, director Dhaka Lit Fest. Speaking words that too many in book worlds no longer stand by. Beautiful.

Two running themes that came up in the most natural way at Dhaka Lit Fest -- the value of idleness, rather than 'hustle culture's, and the need to actively teach a resistance to hate. Some of the most thoughtful conversations happen in Dhaka. Thanks, Sadaf, Kazi and Ahsan. 💖

Indigenous 🇦🇺 writers Yvette Henry Holt desert_smart_art and Graham Akhurst visited BD recently to participate in the Dhaka Lit Fest 2023. Highlights of their trip included a Lit Fest panel discussion, ‘The Dream Time’, and meeting Bangladeshi writers, artists and #AustraliaAwards alumni.

Absolutely thrilled to have attended the fantastic Dhaka Lit Fest during a quick break- inspirational, thought-provoking and above all incredible fun and rejuvenating! Thank you to all the organisers, especially the brilliant Ahsan Akbar

I recently joined the 10th annual Dhaka Lit Fest. The festival is focused primarily on literature, but embraces culture and ideas more broadly, generating discussions on topics including medical #misinformation, #TheFutureOfWork and post #COVID diseases. dhakalitfest.com

It's so rare to see #women revered as fighters alongside men. Which may be why I gasped in joy at seeing this statue in #Dhaka. More please! More reminders of the roles Women have played in History. Maybe then we wouldn't be seen as so expendable. #WomensRightsAreHumanRights

It was wonderful to be back Hay Festival discussing challenges faced by women globally, with the incredible Laura Bates, Mandu Reid and Winnie M Li. There is such power in supporting each other too, given the situation in the world today. #hayfestival2023
