Without women, India cannot progress. Indian women have been asserting their presence in different ways. The increasing number of women voters is beginning to affect election outcomes, and yet the representation of female elected officials is disappointingly low. The rate of female literacy has gone up across the country, and yet the participation of women in the labour force has been steadily declining. Women in India spend almost 20% of their time on unpaid and care work, while men, on average, spend only 2.5% of their time on these activities.

This is just a handful of the many questions and situations that we are tackling as we look at how we can move forward.

Mind The Gender Gap is a monthly podcast that focuses on data and evidence to explore essential questions about women and work in India. It is a collaboration between IndiaSpend, the country’s first and only public interest data journalism initiative and IWWAGE, a research initiative of LEAD at Krea University.
Hosted by Sunaina Kumar, a journalist and researcher, Mind The Gender Gap brings together a diverse group of experts from across sectors who are involved in framing policies that enable and empower women’s participation in the economy.
