International Women's Day '22 - Here's what Women Leaders had to say

“I believe that sustainability is going to define the tomorrow, both as a society and as an ecosystem. Organizations, industries need to recognize this and innovate to contribute towards driving sustainable development, which will also provide them with a competitive edge. Hence, it is imperative that we go beyond just having a vision of sustainability, to making it a mission as an organization or a country ensuring it reflects actively in policies as well as practices.

Sustainability, as defined is the ability to maintain a balance between economic, environmental, and social factors; and gender equality plays an important role in achieving this. In the evolving world today, each capable individual needs to be empowered, skilled, and enabled, and only then India as a country will truly be able to unleash the power of demographic dividend, which it is blessed with. A unified mindset, with a gender-neutral approach while appreciating and acknowledging gender diversity is the start point.

In line with the same, Panasonic driven by its vision of creating a better life and a better world has been consistently driving initiatives on-ground which have been empowering women with skill development and enabling them with access to opportunities. We at Panasonic have been strongly investing in practices contributing towards societal, environmental, and economic sustainability. All our initiatives such as Swabhiman - skill development program, Harit Umang – environment awareness programs amongst others are aligned with the SDG goals.”
