Women are the focal point of society & family; if leadership qualities of women are encouraged, development of society & nation will happen on its own

Leadership is not limited to men

- Vice Chancellor, SNDT Women's University

The #Pandemic and its economic fallout are having a regressive effect on gender equality

Reason behind is, it is significantly increasing the burden of unpaid care

Women employment is dropping faster than average

- Vice Chancellor, SNDT Women's University

#NaariShakti
Make #InternationalWomensDay your day. Do what you can to truly make a positive difference for #Women

- Vice Chancellor, SNDT Women's University, Shashikala Wanjari while addressing a Webinar on 'Gender and Work in #COVID Times'

#NaariShakti

.@UN_Women's Rapid Assessment Survey from 191 countries shows women are likely to see increase in unpaid domestic work

They are also likely to be in charge of performing 3 activities - unpaid child care, elderly care, domestic care

- Prof. Vibhuti Patel
#NariShakti Image
92% of women work force is in informal sector; 32% of them are own-account workers (self- employed)

18% of the women workforce is contributing to unpaid family work; they are contributing to accentuate resources but are not counted as workers

- Prof. Vibhuti Patel
#NariShakti
The whole discourse around migration is always around male migration whereas women are also migrating for work

But that kind of image is not being created

- Prof. Vibhuti Patel
#NariShakti
Land titles in the name of women farmers are only 12%

Most women are marginal farmers or agricultural labours. They are now demanding a status of 'farmer'

Women are not farmer's wife/daughter/sister/mother. They are also farmers

- Prof. Vibhuti Patel
#NariShakti
Relationship between paid and unpaid work is extremely important; unpaid work exhausts majority of women and it causes repercussions on paid work

At any time when there is demand for care, women are the ones who have to pull out of paid work

- Prof. Vibhuti Patel
#NariShakti
We need to redistribute care work; it is not only woman's job

We've to change gender norm where house work & care work is everyone's responsibiltiy

We need to recognize, care work is important; without that mainstream economy can't function
- Prof. Vibhuti Patel
#NariShakti
Except Kerala, no other State Govt. has promised 'to integrate women and gender concerns in the economy' during the rebuilding of economy after #COVID19 lockdown

That promise we need from all Govts., Ministries and Departments

- Prof. Vibhuti Patel
#NariShakti
When we talk about gender, not many of us think about Transgenders

- Transgender Activist, Manvendra Singh Gohil

🎥 Image
Contribution of Transgender community in 1st War of Independence was immense

Transgenders in Godhra, Gujarat have done a lot of social service for slum dwellers in #COVID times

Unfortunately, they are denied right to live a life of dignity

- Manvendra Singh Gohil
M/o Social Justice and Empowerment has taken a lot of initiatives for the welfare of transgenders but the challenge lies in implementing the laws

- Manvendra Singh Gohil
There is no infrastructure for role reversal between men and women as bread earners and care givers respectively

Women have been increasingly subjected to domestic violence during #COVID times

- Jyoti Patankar, Associate Director, Marketing, Tata Consumer Products

#NariShakti Image
The burden faced by women during #Pandemic is going to undo the things they have achieved over so many years.

- Jyoti Patankar, Associate Director, Marketing, Tata Consumer Products

#NariShakti
We should all think about what each one of us can do to bring gender parity.

- Jyoti Patankar, Associate Director, Marketing, Tata Consumer Products
