Responsible Business = Successful Business: Mainstreaming dignity and equity for all workers
Channel: Sankalp Forum
Date: 30/11/2021

The pandemic-induced lockdown, and subsequent exodus of workers, shone light on the plight of informal workers, leading to an unprecedented convergence of multiple stakeholder groups towards this cause. Age-old issues were suddenly in the spotlight, and so the crisis also turned into an opportune moment to course correct. However, given the magnitude and complexity of the issues that this large demographic faces – reaching the most vulnerable workers remains an uphill task. A new aspiration to ensure equity and dignity for the vulnerable workers is the need of the hour!

Mainstreaming of this new aspiration and ideology requires creating awareness, building partnerships that bring together experts from diverse spheres and allow expansion in an agile manner, engaging in thought leadership, and communicating and amplifying insights to activate behaviour change. 

The session unfolds what mainstreaming means at different levels; on the ground, in an organisation and across the industry, and within the global paradigm. The speakers of today’s session are champions spearheading this effort at different levels and will speak to how they are working to realise a new aspiration for India’s most vulnerable workers while engaging a diverse group of stakeholders with a synergistic call to action
