The forum aimed to understand and plan the use of CSR funds for ensuring the holistic development of women


New Delhi: The National Commission for Women in collaboration with the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) organized a Roundtable on ‘Women Empowerment in India and CSR as a Catalyst’, a consultative meeting in Mumbai along with Standard Industrial Bodies and Heads of Major Corporate Foundations.

Role of CSR in achieving SDGs and Women Empowerment

The aim of the consultation was to understand and plan the use of CSR funds for ensuring the holistic development of women. The deliberations centred on topics such as the role of CSR in achieving SDGs and Women Empowerment and CSR: Creating Collaborative Spaces, amongst others.

The meeting was chaired by Rekha Sharma, Chairperson, NCW along with Ashank Desai, Co-Chairman, CII National Committee on CSR, Meeta Rajivlochan, Member Secretary, NCW and Rumjhum Co- Chairperson, CII National Committee on CSR. The consultation was attended by CSR heads of 32 Corporates.

Women empowerment: Industry can engage and collaborate

In her inaugural address, Rekha Sharma touched upon various facets of women empowerment where the industry can engage and collaborate. These include –Rehabilitation of Domestic Violence survivors, Livelihood Generation of Rescued Women from Human Trafficking, Skilling for Disabled Women, Girl Education, Research and Data.

Tackle gender inequality

“CSR is a new means to tackle gender inequality. Women empowerment across all sectors can be enhanced if corporates can identify common priorities and work together collaboratively in order to bring about a major change that can be seen,” said Sharma.

Challenges of empowering women discussed

In a separate break-out session, the participants discussed the biggest challenges of empowering women in sectors such as Skilling & Shelter for Trafficked Women, Financial Inclusion and Child Support Services for Working Women and how Industry can collaborate to address these challenges. Views were also sought and expressed on the government’s role in promoting women’s empowerment and how CSR can facilitate empowerment.
