MUMBAI: As a culmination of the MG Changemakers campaign, MG Motor India and The Better India organized a joint session with 6 women changemakers and Nandita Das, noted actor and social activist, and UN Women India; to encourage more women to get inspired and bring about a positive change in the society.
During the past six weeks, MG Motor India has successfully highlighted the incredible work that six Indian women have done for marginalised communities and those that find themselves at the fringes.
Along with the 6 featured changemakers, many other women who have been doing exemplary work in the fields of social growth and development were also a part of the Unconference.
In keeping with the theme of the campaign, the panel discussion focussed on equal access for women to education, decent work, and representation in political and economic decision-making processes. The deliberations focussed on how these are rights that not only benefit women but benefit humanity at large.
Chief Guest, Nandita Das said, “I hope that this initiative empowers and inspires other woman to follow their truths and speak out for themselves and their communities.”
Nishtha Satyam, Deputy Country Representative, UN Women MCO for India, Bhutan, Maldives and Sri Lanka, “We are pleased with the kind of response that the campaign has garnered and how it has actually generated conversations about the impact that women are capable of creating in communities and how they can inspire, get inspired and turn that inspiration into impact.”
