India Introduces Initiative for Worldwide Good – Gender
Fairness and Parity
On February 28th, 2024, Smriti Irani, the Minister for Women
and Child Development, revealed the emblem and online platform for the
Coalition for Global Good – Gender Fairness and Parity. This cooperative effort
underscores India’s
leadership in advancing worldwide endeavors for the empowerment of women
during its G20 presidency.
Origins of the Coalition
The coalition originated from the G20 Leaders’ Declaration
during the recent summit hosted by India. It embodies Prime Minister Narendra
Modi’s vision of nurturing international collaborations and investments for
gender equality, aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
Eminent guests at the unveiling ceremony included Bill
Gates, co-chair of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, and Chandrajit
Banerjee, Director General of the Confederation
of Indian Industry (CII).
Goals and Areas of Emphasis
The coalition aims to bring together governments,
industries, philanthropic entities, and multilateral organizations to
accelerate advancements in women’s health, education, and livelihoods. It
emphasizes the exchange of knowledge, cooperation, and investment in
evidence-based strategies to empower women and girls globally. Through
collective endeavors across diverse sectors, the initiative strives to boost
female workforce engagement and entrepreneurship.
Supporting Collaborators
The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation serves as a
significant sponsor, reflecting its enduring dedication to gender-related
issues evident in its health, poverty alleviation, and social welfare
endeavors. The CII anchors the coalition through its Center for Women
Leadership. Other collaborators include the World Economic Forum as a network
partner and Invest India as an institutional associate. More private sector
entities, social enterprises, and policy institutions are anticipated to join
the coalition in the future.
Meaning of the Emblem
The emblem symbolizes the combined strength of the
coalition, drawing inspiration from Lord Ganesha as the epitome of wisdom and
fresh beginnings. The letter "e" signifies equity and equality as
central principles. The parallel lines in tri-colors represent unified efforts
by partners from different sectors to economically empower women on a large
scale. The red dot signifies prosperity as the coalition invests in scalable
solutions to accelerate the development of women.
