The Century of Women Starts with Me: From Awareness to Action
BSG hosted its 6th Women’s Symposium on the theme “The Century of Women Starts with Me: From Awareness to Action.”
At its heart, the Symposium asked one question: how can women remain the protagonists of their own lives, and help others do the same?
Bringing together over 1,000 participants, the event created a space for reflection on how individuals, families and communities can help build a more equal future.
Ms. Rashi Ahuja, Member of BSG’s Board of Directors, welcomed Chief Guest Ms Revathi, National Award-winning actor and filmmaker, along with speakers Dr Kalpana Sankar and Ms Vedika Agrawal. In her welcome address, she urged every participant to ask, “What is the one action I can take? Whose life can I encourage? What change can begin with me?”
