Hence her work weds questions of power, justice, and global inequalities to those of language, knowledge, and the body, as mediated by digital technologies. She has also worked with UNICEF India, and the APC Women’s Rights Program. In September 2021, Indira Ganesh will take up a role as co-course leader of a new Master's program on AI, Ethics, and Society at the University of Cambridge, UK.
