Prof Vartika Saxena Professor & Head Department of Community and Family Medicine ,AIIMS Rishikesh , Women’s empowerment can truly flourish when society adopts a balanced approach that celebrates and cultivates the unique strengths of both women and men. Central to this empowerment are foundational pillars such as education, financial autonomy, and robust physical and mental health. Working women, in particular, benefit from flexible work hours, supportive family structures, and a safe work environment, enabling them to reach their fullest potential. Additionally, as the world evolves, enhancing digital literacy becomes crucial. Therefore, investing in programs that train women to become digitally literate is essential to keep pace with technological advancements and empower them further.
