Although it may seem that COVID-19 in India has momentarily disappeared from our daily news cycle, the country’s enormous challenges haven’t gone away; in fact, beyond the immediate health and economic impacts, the secondary and long-lasting social issues are now coming into clear focus, including rising hunger and poverty, domestic violence, child marriage, trafficking and more.
Join us online on Tuesday 22 June 5.00-6.00pm AEST for real-world insights into the current reality on the ground, THP’s constantly evolving response, and the vision and plan for where to next. We’ll be in conversation with THP-India’s Ruchi Yadav who has been a fierce and much-admired leader with the organisation for more than 13 years.
You will hear directly from Ruchi about:
- what her nation’s challenges mean for her people, their mindsets and behaviours;
- THP’s response via mobilising our powerful cadre of highly trained and courageous elected women leaders who are responsible for 6.4 million people across 1,400 panchayats (local council areas); and
- what is needed now to rise to this and future challenges.
The session will be hosted by another authentic and engaging leader, Belinda Brosnan: long-time THP investor, THP leadership immersion program participant-turned-facilitator and former THPA QLD Development Board member, who visited our work in India in 2018 so deeply understands our work there and knows Ruchi well too.
Tell us what you want to know: We want to make sure in the short time we have with Ruchi that she covers what you want to know, so please send in your questions ahead of time to thpa@thp.org (you’ll also have a chance to ask them live during the session).
