The We Women Want Festival & Awards 2024, set to take place in New Delhi on October 14, 2024, will bring together influential figures and women achievers from various fields to celebrate women’s empowerment. This year’s Delhi edition will feature Union Minister for Road Transport and Highways, Nitin Gadkari, as the Chief Guest, adding political gravitas to the event. The festival, hosted at the Taj Ambassador Hotel, aims to create a platform for discussions on gender equality, women’s rights, and success stories of women across diverse sectors.
The We Women Want initiative has a rich history of honoring women who have made remarkable contributions in areas such as sports, politics, entrepreneurship, and the arts. The festival is a continuation of the We Women Want Shakti Awards, which recognize trailblazing women who have overcome significant challenges to achieve success. Previous editions have included participation from prominent leaders like Harsimrat Kaur Badal, Priyanka Chaturvedi, and IPS and IAF officers who have shared inspiring stories about balancing their professional responsibilities with personal challenges. This platform also focuses on pertinent issues such as education, employment, and women’s representation in governance, aiming to promote a more inclusive society.
One of the key aspects of the festival is its commitment to addressing the struggles women face in various domains. From encouraging young girls to pursue sports, as advocated by athletes like Shweta Sherawat and Karnam Malleswari, to discussions about women’s roles in national security and law enforcement, the event emphasizes the need for greater representation of women in leadership roles.
The Delhi edition promises to carry forward this legacy, with Nitin Gadkari expected to shed light on the government’s initiatives to empower women in sectors such as transport and infrastructure. Attendees can expect engaging panel discussions, inspirational stories, and an opportunity to celebrate the resilience and achievements of women.
