Susan Ferguson, UN Women Representative for India joins the Swasth Bharat, Sampann Bharat Telethon

I think what we just saw is a really good example of giving women more access to infrastructure. Women often don't have enough opportunities. This is why UN Women concentrates on skilling programmes also to support women who dropped out of school or never able to achieve a diploma in a particular work. We have big skilling work. We also look at women farmers, who may not be registered, how can we help them and get access to government schemes. We also work with national and state governments on improving services to gender based violence. Due to pandemic, a lot of women are experiencing more violence. It is very important to bring women into economic development. India could achieve extra 700 billion dollars economic growth if women were into formal sector like men.
