About EVOLVE

The stories Ireland
hasn’t told yet.

EVOLVE Magazine was created by Dublin Celebrations in 2025 with a single belief: that the women building the bridge between Indian and Irish culture in Ireland deserve a publication that treats their stories with the seriousness, care, and beauty they merit.

Every edition of EVOLVE is built around a theme that speaks to the shared experience of women living across two cultures in Ireland — their identities, their ambitions, the moments that changed them, and the communities they are quietly and powerfully building.

“EVOLVE is a magazine born from a simple but powerful idea: that the stories of Indian and Irish women, told honestly and told together, can teach both our nations something about who we are becoming.”

— Kevin Kelly, Ambassador of Ireland to India · EVOLVE Foreword, August 2026

Editorial Rigour

Every feature is built from the subject's own words. Full editorial approval before publication. Nothing goes to print without the subject's explicit sign-off.

Cultural Bridge

EVOLVE sits at the intersection of Indian and Irish identity in 2026 — celebrating both without diminishing either, and finding the stories that only exist where both meet.

Community Rooted

Built by Dublin Celebrations — five years of community events, festivals, and relationships across Ireland's Indian and Irish communities since 2021.

EVOLVE Magazine Launch · 2025

EVOLVE’s first edition was launched in partnership with Ambassador Kevin Kelly, the Irish Ambassador to India, alongside Dublin Celebrations founders Rohit Srivastava and Malvika Sinha in Dublin, 2025.

“This is precisely the kind of grassroots cultural diplomacy that no embassy, however well-intentioned, could manufacture on its own.”

About EVOLVE

Her Crown,
Her Story.

Cover Story

Dr Reita Faria Powell

Miss World 1966 · The first Asian woman to win the title · Dublin resident for over 50 years

In 1966, a 23-year-old medical student from Bombay walked onto a stage in London and made history. She was crowned Miss World — the first Asian woman to hold that title. She went on to qualify as a doctor. And then she stepped quietly away from the spotlight, building an extraordinary life in Dublin where she has lived, privately and purposefully, for over fifty years.
“It is an honour and a pleasure for me to contribute in some small way.”
