HERStory - THE WOMEN EMPOWERMENT CELL
GIET is focussing on the empowerment of women and girls because they are disproportionately affected by poverty. Women suffer discrimination in all wakes of life, abuse, and violations in the realization of their rights, entitlements, and access and control over resources. When equipped with the proper resources, women have the power and capabilities to help whole families and entire communities overcome poverty, marginalisation, and social injustice.
HERStory aims to empower women through educating them about their rights, creating awareness regarding the importance of healthcare, and most importantly, helping them break barriers imposed on them by society through various webinars, debates, documentary screenings and nukkadnataks about gender centric concerns .
