A topic which is not talked about much but needs to be addressed. The society pressurises women to fulfil multiple roles in their lives perfectly – friend, wife, daughter-in-law, mother, professional etc. In a country like India, women face safety issues everyday, domestic violence and there is not much worth of a woman’s power and equality. A woman has to be brave and strong to jump from all the obstacles which come her way.
Other topics covered in the campaign were abortion, work-life balance, equal pay, career opportunities, harassment and child care.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
