FLO is about achievement through togetherness,
delivering through motivation and hard work.
We have gone through two devastating pandemic struck years and we may go through new waves anytime in future. Women are the biggest sufferers. The key part of the solution is unleashing the economic power of women. So our vision for the term “Stronger SHE” is an endeavour to provide systematic and tailored resources for women to build long-term and sustainable livelihoods for themselves and for society. Our theme this year is Financial Literacy for women through a series of learning sessions and workshops. This is also a national initiative being headed by me, Shubhraa shared.
Our endeavours this year will be to work at the policy level with the Government; with women at grassroots by imparting skills; we will impart basic awareness of financial decision making for women to better support their families and we will promote inclusivity in schools and workplaces to improve the opportunities for persons with disabilities. For middle level and white collar women, we will organize programs that broaden their horizon when it comes to Financial decisions such as investment and growth, Shubhraa explained
Overall, the FLO’s commitment this year is to bring about a positive and impactful change in the lives of women, she said
