Womenite originated from an urgent desire to confront the inadequacies of a society thriving on imperfect ideals. It is a youth-led social initiative Read morecommitted to fostering change through education, love, and empowerment, aiming to establish a gender-equal and accepting society. The belief in the necessity of gender equality inspired the team to form this organization. Its mission is determined by its dedication to improving society practically by sharing information and raising awareness about critical issues. Its work involves creating an inclusive world that appreciates people for their uniqueness, rejecting imposed ideas of gender, sexuality, ability, race, religion, class, or caste. Womenite's persistent efforts pursue multiple goals, ultimately striving for 'Equality' in a gender-biased world. Various workshops focus on addressing gender stereotypes, their hindrance to personal growth, and promoting gender neutrality against inequalities.
