This event brought together Industry Associations, CXOs, and HR Heads from leading industries in Madhya Pradesh to discuss pathways to create an enabling environment for womenโs participation in formal employment.

The Roundtable focused on strengthening womenโs participation in formal employment by-
ยท Addressing the social barriers and hiring biases that hinder participation;
ยท Unpacking challenges that prevent hiring and retention;

We extend our sincere thanks to Scope Global Skills University, FSG, and all participating leaders and hope to further our discourse into positive outcomes for womenโs workforce participation overtime.
