Gender parity cannot be achieved by putting the onus of it on one gender; joint efforts by everyone are needed to create a safe, equitable and nurturing working climate for all. Our female colleagues across levels and regions came together to exchange personal experiences and give inputs for solutions to some of the issues, on the occasion of International Women’s Day 2021.
In contrast to last year’s IWD celebrations at ICRISAT headquarters, this year it was a completely virtual event, for obvious reasons. However, there was no dearth of insights from women employees on the key areas of concern for every woman in the organization, and on how to deal with them.
