Building an Equitable and Gender Just Society
Empowering women by building their
skills, capacities, and assets and creating an enabling environment with
stakeholders who are committed to their socio-economic development, Jove
Conscious is an NGO Working for Women Empowerment in
Delhi that provides Training courses, involving various Livelihood
Programs which are organized depending on the existing local skills of the
women. Their capacities are built by collaborating with the NGO
for Skill Training Courses for Women in Delhi. Gender perspective plays
an important role in women's empowerment where women make up half of the labor
force but are paid lower and are assigned mostly unskilled jobs. Due to women’s
concentration in the lower status jobs their potential to contribute fully
remains largely untapped.
Women are important stakeholders in
the development process – helping as workers, producers, caregivers, and customers
— yet they are not protected from the negative fallout of gender biases. Gender stereotypes in constructing
skill sets, knowledge, and policies often confine women to conventionally
defined work choices and limit their professional development.
Empowering women toward a
sustainable tomorrow is a way to bring about gender equality within society. Women are the change-makers, who are empowering other women through
their life experiences, bringing them to a level where they can either start
their own micro-enterprise or form a group of women to start their own
production units and develop linkages with local markets and integrate. Education
is the solution to empowering women & girls from marginalized communities.
The world will forever be in a dire
need of great leadership. In an ideal world, it should not matter whether it’s
a woman running the leadership role in the organization or a man helping and
managing the household chores.
And in a world in which we live
where male domination still exists as it did 100 years ago, it has become
imperative for women leaders to emerge and stand up for their rights and emerge as
leaders for a better and equitable tomorrow. Jove Conscious is an NGO
for Domestic Violence in Delhi.
