Sandhya Mendonca

The book was launched in April 2019 at the Innovate Bengaluru Festival,[11] which brought together over 300 Icons, Inventors, Entrepreneurs, Emerging Leaders, Enablers and Investors.

It was published by Sparsh Foundation in 2024. https://www.newindianexpress.com/states/karnataka/2024/Jan/22/justice-shivaraj-patil-releases-memoir Mendonca hosts a podcast and talk show "Spotlight with Sandhya" that features one-to-one conversations on inspirations and journeys.

In 2009, Mendonca started an informal initiative in memory of her husband, Under the Raintree,[14] that hosted play readings, artistic interactions and concerts.

Starting with the dramatised reading of Anita Nair's Nine Faces of Being when it was a work in progress to concerts and talks, this initiative engages artistes with audiences in informal, intimate settings.

In 2015, Mendonca was inspired to form the SHE Collective Hub, giving expression to the voices of women through poetry and art for social good.

In sync with artists like Shan Re and Romicon Revola, poets Poile Sengupta & Kavita Rajshekar, among others, she offered the forum of SHE Collective Hub to The Casa Foundation, the House of Hope and the Dream India Network.
