Workshops on Women Empowerment
Even after constituting half of the total population of our country challenges that women face in their day to day life are immense. Women are still treated as weaker participant in the development process of society and their contributions are not duly acknowledged. Women rights are oppressed and the awareness about them is still under nascent state in the country. Dowry, bond labourer and forced prostitution are widespread in some parts of India. India has elaborative laws to protect the rights of women like the Prevention of Immoral Traffic, the Sati (widow burning) Act, and the Dowry Prevention Act. Developments of Women and children have figured prominently in the government’s agenda of social reforms and initiatives; however the Government is often unable to enforce these laws, especially in rural areas where traditions are deeply rooted. Many obstacles to the realization of women’s human rights in India are social and cultural in nature, deeply rooted in the traditions of its communities. Dealing with such important issues, SNI celebrates International Women’s Day every
Year by conducting workshops/seminars in the slum/rural areas on women centric issues to empower and make them aware of their rights and duties. Organization is in the process to help them out through skill development and formation of Self Help Groups (SHGs) for Skill development, will help in enhancement of income generation to live life in better way and make herself self reliant.
Survey
Fundamentally, a survey is a method of gathering information from a sample of people, traditionally with the intention of generalizing the results to a larger population.
Evaluation
Evaluation assessment considers value, merit, worth, significance or quality (Scriven, 1991). It may aim to identify what works, for whom, in what respects.
Monitoring
Monitoring is conducted after a programme has begun and continues throughout the programme implementation period.
IMPACT ASSESSMENTS
Environmental Impact Assessment Review (EIA Review) is a refereed, interdisciplinary journal serving a global audience of practitioners.
Women’s Empowerment Workshop Ideas
Be selective — but not exclusive
Before you start planning activities, decide what objectives you want this group to achieve. Is your goal to help women succeed in the workplace — or in higher education? Are you working with college students or entrepreneurs? The focus of your group will depend on the age, goals, and life experience of your participants, so it’s important to have an idea of who will attend.
Rent a memorable venue
One of the best ways to make an impact with your event is to host it at a space that can live up to the occasion. Renting a Peerspace venue is among the top women’s empowerment workshop ideas because you’ll find spaces that offer everything from feminine chic to business casual vibes.
Host a coding bootcamp
It’s becoming a bit of a cliche, but learning to code is still a great way to empower women to find jobs in tech and related STEM fields. From Women Who Code to the Hackbright Academy’s All Women’s Coding Bootcamp, there are dozens of organizations out there offering coding events in women-only environments. If you want to host your own, just plan your event at a Peerspace venue like this coworking space in Chicago with free Wi-Fi and plenty of desk space.
Have a public speaking contest
Public speaking can be difficult for anyone, but it’s especially important for women in business and politics to be able to address a large audience with confidence. Give your participants the chance to practice their skills by hosting a Toastmasters-style public speaking event.
Plan a photo or video project
There’s no better way to push back against the male gaze than by taking charge of the camera. Global Girls Media has been empowering female activists and journalists around the world with their women-centric video projects. In the US, the Female Farmer Project documents women working in agriculture to overturn the typical stereotype of the male farmer.
Host a mini maker faire
Laser cutters, 3-D printers, and other tools can be a lot of fun to use — but they can also be hard to get access to if you aren’t part of a makerspace. Add some hands-on activities to your event by hosting a mini-maker faire at this creative workspace in Berkeley.
