Streevani, the Women’s Development Cell, organised a special programme to mark International Women’s day on 8 March. Mrs Brigdina Coutinho, CEO of Bassein Catholic Co-operative Bank graced the occasion and spoke on the role of women in building a balanced society which respects and promotes gender equity. Students assumed the roles of contemporary women achievers and shared their success stories. A display on women achievers was organised to share the inspirational lives of over 25 women who battled various odds to achieve their goals. During the entire year various input sessions were held to generate awareness regarding gender laws and programmes and schemes for gender equality. Special assemblies on gender sensitization were conducted to mark International Day of the Girl Child.
