UnRepresented KL is a homegrown writing programme that aims to unearth the untold narratives from the people and communities in our bustling city, Kuala Lumpur. After four successful workshops and a year of hiatus, they are making a comeback this year with their fifth cohort, UnR5. Founders Veronica and Adriana join us this week to catch up on their new development in approaches to writing and their exciting plans for the upcoming programme.
