Begum Iqbal Bano Foundation careers

The Begum Iqbal Bano Foundation is a cultural and educational nonprofit working to preserve and celebrate the richness of Indian languages and literature, focusing on Punjabi and Hindi poetry.

Through initiatives like Asal Bol (Punjabi) and Khadee Boli (Hindi), we curate archives, publish rare works, and create digital spaces for poetry to thrive in the modern age.

We are committed to empowering the dreams of young people and nurturing talent for a more culturally vibrant and inclusive future. Our projects bring together poets, scholars, artists, and language lovers — all working towards building a meaningful legacy of expression, rooted in the soil.
