UN Women Coffee Table Book on 75 inspiring women of India 💖

We celebrate Nupur Lalvani, Founder of Blue Circle Diabetes Foundation which is a patient led organisation for people with all types of diabetes, for being recognized as one of India's 75 inspiring women leaders! Her feature in the "हम | When Women Lead" coffee table book, a collaboration between UN Women India and the Ford Foundation, is a testament to her impactful leadership in health awareness and advocacy.

The book features the extraordinary journeys of 75 women leaders from diverse backgrounds across India, who have transcended barriers, defied limits, and made a lasting impact on their communities. Keeping with the spirit of women’s leadership, the book was put together by an all-women team of writers, photographers, visual artists, and editors. Coinciding with India's G20 Presidency in 2023, which emphatically focused on women-led development, this project is not just a collection of stories; it's an examination of women's leadership as a key trigger of social transformation and progress. Investing in women benefits not only women themselves but also society. Closing gender employment gaps could increase GDP per capita by 20 per cent across all regions. Additionally, investing in care services, such as daycare and elderly care, not only reduces unpaid care work predominantly done by women but also creates decent work opportunities, potentially generating almost 300 million jobs by 2035.
