We are thrilled to announce our renewed partnership with Magdalene in Indonesia! Magdalene is a women-focused online publication that offers news and views with a gender perspective. Magdalene was founded in 2013 to fill the gap of media that capture issues that really affect women and cover news with intersectional feminist lens. Magdalene serves as a platform to represent and amplify voices of those rarely represented in the Indonesian media, including from minority and marginalised groups. Though the IW partnership, Magdalene will launch a new initiative called Serempak Setara (Together Towards Equality). This new initiative recognises that women’s participation and representation in workplace leadership is inevitably intertwined with their caring responsibilities. Serempak Setara aims to raise public awareness, shift perspectives and attitudes, inspire changemakers, and mobilise action to promote gender-equal sharing of care and economic roles. Follow Magdalene on social media to join us on this journey towards a more gender equal society. Read more: https://buff.ly/3yjEFvg

🌟Embrace the Power Within: Navratri & the Beginning of Vikram Samvat 2081🌟 Navratri, a festival dedicated to the worship of Goddess Durga in her various forms, symbolizes the triumph of good over evil, light over darkness, and knowledge over ignorance. It serves as a reminder of the inherent strength and divine energy that resides within each of us, irrespective of gender. In the spirit of Navratri, let us acknowledge and celebrate the multifaceted strengths and powers that both men and women possess. It's crucial to recognize that strength knows no gender boundaries. Whether it's the fierce determination of Durga, the nurturing compassion of Lakshmi, or the wisdom of Saraswati, each aspect of the divine feminine exemplifies different dimensions of strength and power. As we welcome Vikram Samvat 2081, let us commit to fostering a culture where gender equality thrives, where individuals are empowered to harness their unique strengths, and where diversity is celebrated as a source of collective strength. May this Navratri and the beginning of Vikram Samvat 2081 inspire us to embrace our inherent power, transcend limitations, and work together toward a more equitable and empowered future. Wishing you all a joyous Navratri and a prosperous Vikram Samvat 2081! 🌺🕉️ #Navratri #VikramSamvat2081 #GenderEquality #Strength #Power #Diversity #Empowerment

About last night Coldplay is playing 6 straight nights in Singapore and being a big fan of the band we were at the National Stadium one among the 60,000. The reason I write this post is because I saw ESG in action at the concert and also learnt something new . The opening act was Jasmine Sokko a talented local artist who opened for them. We often forget gender equality is SDG 5. Before the concert started they showed the work they do for life under water-SDG 14 by running a project to clean the oceans. The floor for the large standing pen was made of kinetic tiles- first I had heard of these- so the more you jump on these during the concert , more electricity is generated which is used to light up the concert !! They had stationary bikes at the back that you could ride that also generated electricity when you rode them. And last but not least all wristbands, the ones that light up, are collected back and they shared data about the percentages collected back at each city which were all above 95%-SDG 12. I started thinking about why kinetic energy is not being harnessed today eg in gyms where ppl are riding bikes etc. is this an area where we need innovation to find solutions and bring down costs ? Would love to hear if any of you have come across these solutions or understand this better. #sustainabledevelopment #kinetics #innovation

Give Back to Gurugram | Geek | Investor | Earth Hero | Let’s connect & change the business world for the better
Today is an Epic Day ! Today is the day of Equality. Amidst the significance of #mahashivratri and #internationalwomensday , let's ponder a timeless truth: the pursuit of equality transcends any specific ideology. Today, more than ever, our focus should be on fostering equality rather than aligning with any particular movement. #Ardhanarishvara embodies the harmony of masculine and feminine energies, let us strive for a society where everyone is treated with fairness and respect, regardless of gender. In this modern age, let's unite under the banner of equality, recognizing that true progress lies in embracing our shared humanity. Both events underscore the concept of equality and the importance of embracing the duality within ourselves. Just as Ardhanarishvara represents the synthesis of Shiva and Shakti, reminding us that totality lies beyond duality, it also embodies the essence of equality. Each of us possesses both masculine and feminine energies, and it's vital to recognize and honor the balance within. Today serves as a powerful reminder to focus on the virtue of equality, celebrating the inherent divinity in all genders and embracing the wholeness that comes from unity. #MahaShivratri #InternationalWomensDay #Equality #UnityInDiversity

As June fades and the vibrant Pride flags 🏳️🌈 come down, it's crucial to remember that the fight for equality and inclusion doesn't end with the close of Pride Month. At SISU, we believe that the recognition and celebration of the LGBTQIA+ community must be a year-round commitment. In July, Lesbians, Gays, Bisexuals, Trans 🏳️⚧️, and Queer individuals are still here, living their truths and navigating a world that often tries to silence 🤫 them. Pride is more than a month-long celebration; it's an ongoing movement demanding #visibility, #representation, and #SystemicChange. It's about recognising the unique challenges the #LGBTQIA+ community faces and actively working towards a more inclusive society. We must continue to push for changes in government policies that protect and uplift LGBTQIA+ individuals. Safe spaces are essential for the wellbeing of the community, where everyone can express their identities without fear of discrimination or violence. This is not just about tolerance; it's about genuine acceptance and support. The rainbow washing may disappear, but the need for #advocacy remains. As we dismantle one layer of inequality, we must continue to fight until every person, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity, feels safe and valued. To quote the great Maya Angelou, "Until we are all free, we are none of us free." This powerful reminder underlines the importance of collective liberation and the ongoing work needed to achieve true equity. At SISU, we are committed to fostering an environment of inclusion and wellbeing for all. Let's keep the spirit of Pride alive every day by advocating for change, supporting each other, and celebrating the beautiful #Uniqueness within our community. Together, we can make a difference. Need help with anything from Talk Lounges to workshops? Get in touch with us—we're like the superheroes of equity and inclusion, minus the capes (but we do have some pretty great hoodies) 😏 #SISU #Agency #EIW #Wellbeing #Community #ElevatingBusiness #Equity #Equality #Diversity #Inclusion #SISUciety #Innovation #IncreasingRepresentation #Pride #QueerAllYear #Advocate #Represent

Kudos to Atomberg Technologies for proudly holding the pride flag high! 🏳️🌈 On this International LGBT Pride Day, we are thrilled to highlight Atomberg Technologies' Shakti Talks initiative, a series of monthly videos focused on inclusion and respect in the workplace. This campaign, designed and conceptualized by our team at Cohere Consultants LLP, showcases their unwavering commitment to fostering an inclusive environment. This month's installment focuses on spreading awareness about Pride and the symbols of the movement. The Economic Times reports that senior executives across India Inc are championing similar initiatives, conducting sensitization programs, and offering mentoring opportunities. These efforts are crucial for promoting broader societal acceptance, encouraging a more inclusive and understanding community, and setting a positive example for others to follow. In today's diverse work environment, creating a culture where everyone feels valued and supported is more important than ever. Building a culture of belonging is simple when the heart and mind unite. To support LGBTQIA+ employees, companies should take key steps: provide DE&I training, adopt non-discrimination policies, offer inclusive healthcare, promote allyship, use fair hiring practices, and ensure leaders back LGBTQIA+ initiatives with clear accountability. These actions create a more inclusive workplace. Check out this video, and we would also love to see what your workplace has done on International Pride Day! #PrideDay #InclusionMatters #WorkplaceDiversity #LGBTQAllyship #EqualityForAll #InternationalLGBTPrideDay

A Celebration of Bonds and Responsibility This Rakshabandhan, I reflect on the deeper meaning of the festival—a celebration of love, trust, and responsibility that goes beyond just tying a Rakhi. What truly makes this bond special is: ✓ The commitment to protect and empower one another. ✓ The shared trust that strengthens relationships. ✓ The responsibility we hold to uplift and support women. Here’s how we can make a difference: ✓ Stand up for women’s rights and safety. ✓ Encourage and support their dreams. ✓ Create a culture of respect and equality. When we embrace these values, Rakshabandhan becomes more than a tradition—it becomes a call to action for a better world. "Empowerment begins with protection, and true protection lies in respect and equality." As we celebrate this festival, let’s pledge to protect and uplift the women in our lives, ensuring they thrive in a world that values their contributions. #Rakshabandhan #WomenEmpowerment #Equality

Celebrating Best Practices from Rainbow Tick-Certified Organizations: Bilingual Gender-Inclusive Posters and Intersectionality 🌈 We're proud to spotlight Otago Polytechnic | Te Pūkenga, a Rainbow Tick-certified organization, for their innovative approach to promoting gender inclusion and Te Reo Māori simultaneously. They've developed and distributed posters in both English and Te Reo Māori, strategically placed in bathrooms. These posters not only support gender diversity and inclusion but also serve to promote the Māori language. What sets this initiative apart is its intersectional approach, seamlessly blending gender awareness with language advocacy. By recognizing and addressing the needs of gender-diverse individuals, including those within the Māori community, Otago Polytechnic exemplifies a commitment to inclusivity and equity. It's a powerful demonstration of how organizations can embrace diversity in all its forms. 🌈 #InclusionMatters #RainbowTickCertified #Intersectionality
