For ages, women have been seen as having the role of primary family caretakers. They tend to the rearing of their children and take care of their family’s elders. Today, many women are advocating the expansion of the roles of women in all aspects of society. They seek to empower women to make their own career choices as well as providing them with equal opportunities to do so.
However, the struggles in these areas for women are far from over. For instance, women’s earnings still lag behind men. Women are not often given the same educational opportunities as men. Social norms and biases still pressure women to retain roles as family caretakers. How can we move forward to allow women more fair choices and opportunities equal to those available to men?
Her Royal Highness Princess Noor of Jordan and Harjinder Kaur Talwar of the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FICCI) and India Chair and Global Ambassador of the International Women’s Entrepreneurial Challenge Foundation (IWEC) engage Sadhguru in a profound conversation about the power of the feminine and its role in the economy. This session at the annual awards event of the IWEC Foundation took place on October 28, 2020.
