In India, girls make up 43% of enrolment in STEM courses - one of the highest in the world. Yet, only 27% of them are likely to enter the workforce and often exit these careers earlier than their male peers. Why is that so and what can be done to bridge this gap? These are the questions we set out to tackle in our brand new podcast, Avanti: Yes She Can.



From leaders at the helm of multi-billion dollar companies to film directors, comedians and social entrepreneurs, we sit down with some exceptional women as we understand their road to success, the bumps along the way and to take us back in time to their childhood to get to know the girl before the woman. Join Vandana Goyal, co-CEO of Avanti Fellows, and our guests, who prove every day that “yes, she can,” and so can you!
