The Jharkhand Education Project Council (JEPC) is pleased to announce the renewal of its partnership with the International Center for Research on Women (ICRW)) through a five-year Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to advance gender-responsive and inclusive education across the state.

Building on the progress of the previous collaboration, this renewed partnership aims to embed gender equity into the everyday culture of schools, not as an add-on, but as an integral part of teaching, learning and school governance.

Aligned with the vision of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, the partnership will focus on:

- Strengthening the capacity of teachers and mid-tier academic and administrative functionaries to recognise and respond to gender inclusion in schools.

- Strengthening Kasturba Gandhi Balika Vidyalaya (KGBV) data and monitoring systems to support evidence-based decision-making.

- Revitalising the KGBV Consortium as a platform for cross-district learning and knowledge exchange.

- Continuing the Gender Equity Movement in Schools (GEMS) programme by engaging teachers, Head Teachers, Bal Sansads and School Management Committees to foster equitable school environments.

- Providing technical support to JEPC in strengthening Gender Cells to promote gender-responsive and inclusive schools across Jharkhand.

-Support JEPC as a Technical partner to capacitate Gender Cells to strengthen the work around Gender Responsive and Inclusive School

Through this renewed collaboration, JEPC reaffirms its commitment to creating an education system where respect, safety, equity and inclusion are embedded in everyday school practices, ensuring that every child can learn and thrive.

Care sustains families, communities, and economies. Yet the responsibility for care still falls overwhelmingly on women. What would it take to change this?

Women are the backbone of health systems worldwide. From community health workers and nurses to administrators and supervisors, women keep public health systems running.

[ICRW Asia @ICRWAsia]

Yet their work remains undervalued, underpaid, and often dismissed as “natural caregiving” rather than skilled labor.

What would it take to truly value women’s leadership in health?
