Addressing inequalities in the Indian workplace | IND&I - Episode 1

India's rich diversity is both its strength and its challenge. Despite the nation's long-standing mantra of "Unity in diversity," the journey toward true equality, particularly in the workplace, has been complex. While efforts have been made to ensure equality, the focus on equity—ensuring fair opportunities for all—has often been lost. In this episode, we explore the multifaceted challenges of addressing inequalities across education, religion, and gender in the Indian workplace. Our guest speakers, Tanvi Nair (She/Her/Hers), an outspoken advocate for gender inclusion and a DE&I catalyst, and Dr. Ritu Anand, a pioneering leader in HR and diversity, share their insights and experiences on fostering a more inclusive and equitable work environment in India. Join us as we explore how organisations can bridge the gap between equality and equity, ensuring that every individual, regardless of their background, has a fair chance to thrive.
