Women’s workforce participation in India today is a class, region, and age-agnostic problem. Of the 16 per cent of India’s working-age women either engaged in the workforce or seeking paid work, less than 7 per cent are urban dwellers. India produces the largest number of female STEM graduates in the world, but only 14 per cent translates to the workforce.
For these numbers to change for the better, the right kinds of aspirations have to be seeded early on, especially during adolescence. Curated programmes designed for different communities and diverse age groups can contribute to long-lasting impacts.
Wonder Girls has introduced the launch of a transformational fellowship programme to nurture and develop formidable younger women into assured and brave leaders. The fellowship will likely be accepting 50 fellows from courses 8-12 in the course of the first batch.
The complete programme is designed round 4 cornerstones: studying instantly from a star-studded lineup of leaders, studying with an unbelievable and high-quality peer group, demonstrating management potential by a curated challenge, and assured entry to game-changing internships.
