The panel explored many solutions that already exist: innovative approaches, such as sports, social media, and community models to shift harmful gender norms; delivery of community-based high-quality services to survivors; gender sensitization of our medical institutions, police force and justice institutions. But to address this issue the sector needs more, consistent and flexible funding. The speakers emphasized that collective, long-term action is crucial for creating a safer, more equitable India for women and girls.

I like engaging with Indiaspora for many reasons, one being their emphasis on philanthropy and social impact. They are committed to increasing the amount and effectiveness of philanthropy by the Diaspora.

I love being involved with Indiaspora because it’s an eclectic and powerful community of diverse thought leaders from around the world. Nowhere else would you find a venture capitalist, a scientist, a politician, an author, a corporate executive, and an Indian classical musician sharing and exchanging ideas!
