This second cohort of the Fellowship identifies women with deep commitment to driving change and change within their communities as social sector leaders and social entrepreneurs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During India\u2019s G20 Presidency in 2023 the focus shifted for the first time, from women\u2019s development to women-led development. India\u2019s collective and unwavering dedication to champion \u2018Gender Equality and Empowering All Women and Girls\u2019 secured a firm place in the G20 New Delhi Leaders\u2019 Declaration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In line with this vision, the WomenLeaders India Fellowship will provide leadership capacity building for talented women leaders, including social sector leaders and social entrepreneurs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The WomenLeaders India Fellowship 2024-2025 kicked off with an in-person convening in Mumbai on September 13-14, 2024, where the Fellows had the opportunity to connect and learn from a range of experts in the social sector from India and around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Speaking on the launch announcement, Ms Isha Ambani, Director, Reliance Foundation, said, \u201cWhen women lead, we make impossible positive change a reality, we bring new ideas and perspectives to the table. Congratulations to the 50 Fellows selected for WomenLeaders India Fellowship 2024-25 powered by Reliance Foundation and Vital Voices! The strong networks, joy and learning that women bring to other women, is the foundation of this Fellowship to strengthen and amplify social sector impact. We are privileged to be part of this programme in creating transformations together for the social sector.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;\u201cWe are thrilled to partner with Reliance Foundation to support India\u2019s next generation of women leaders who are truly at the forefront of driving social change. We believe that by harnessing and leveraging our collective network and resources, we are able to provide women leaders with support, mentorship and guidance as they strive to be a catalyst for change in India and beyond,\u201d said Ms Alyse Nelson, President and CEO of Vital Voices Global Partnership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Throughout the next ten months, the Fellows will work on their own personalized project to advance the SDGs (sustainable development goals), and will be supported with leadership development webinar trainings with Indian and global experts, to enhance their unique skill set and build their network. Additionally, each Fellow will have access to mentors for personalised guidance for the duration of their journey, as well as having the opportunity for peer-to-peer learning from the current and alumni Fellows. The WomenLeaders India Fellowship will end with a final in-person gathering where Fellows will reflect on their overall progress on their SDG projects and celebrate their accomplishments. WomenLeaders India seeks to build a strong community of women leaders in the social sector and ignite sustainable change across India by leveraging the power of women-led development across India.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The WomenLeaders India Fellows 2024-25 are recognised for their impactful work across four critical areas: Climate Resilience, Education, Sports for Development, and Livelihood Generation, using innovative solutions to address some of India\u2019s most pressing challenges. From empowering future generations to transforming communities, these Fellows are leading efforts for lasting economic, social, and environmental change, advancing gender equality and strengthening community resilience through collaborative, forward-thinking initiatives and are true catalysts for change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the inaugural cohort in December 2022, Fellows were selected for their work on Education, Rural Transformation, strengthening livelihoods, as well as Sports for Development from various organisations, working at the grassroots level across rural and semi-urban areas of the country. Working on a range of issues and geographies from waste management in southern coastal villages to affordable energy sources in north-east India the first cohort Fellows reported increased leadership opportunities, enhanced confidence and improved participation in SDG-related projects in their work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Learn more about the Fellows and follow the programme on social media using
