~An engaging platform curated by Barkha Dutt for Facebook & UN Women~
Unlike other conferences, We The Women is a
community that connects women and men from a range of professions, spanning
from cinema, politics and sports to literature and law. Covering speakers from
all walks of life, these are people who walk the talk, lead by example, and
continue to make a difference to the world with the amazing work that they are
doing.
This year’s line-up includes powerful and
impactful women like Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw who has been featured in the list of 100 Most Powerful Women in
the World, followed by Soumya Swaminathan, Chief Scientist of the WHO.
Representing the Indian Film industry will be
Kareena Kapoor Khan who has been empowering women through her talk-show
‘What Women Want’ along with Sonu Sood and Vikas Khanna, who have
given back to the society this year and worked for the underprivileged and
people affected by the pandemic in more ways than one.
Furthermore, the panel will also feature the
likes of Gitanjali Rao, the Indian-origin American teenager who was
recently named ‘TIME Top young innovator’ in 2020 for her innovations and
"innovation workshops" she conducts across the globe and was also
featured on the cover of TIME magazine and named "Kid of the Year".
Roopa Kudva, MD of Omidyar Network India & Upasna Taku,
Founder MobiKwik will be seen speaking on Female
Entrepreneurship while Khushbu Sundar, Urmila Matondkar & Nusrat Jahan
will be seen discussing the topic on whether ‘Is Politics Still a Boy's Club?’.
Last but not the least, Ananya and Neerja Birla will be shedding light
on ‘Women and Mental Health’.
