International Women’s Day is celebrated to recognize the strength, resilience, and contributions of women in every sphere of life. It is also a reminder of the ongoing need to promote gender equality and ensure that every woman and girl has the opportunity to learn, grow, and achieve her dreams.
On 6th March 2026, we celebrated Women’s Day with the women and young girls of Solapara, Guwahati under the theme “Give to Gain.” The gathering created a space for reflection, dialogue, and joyful participation within the community.
The event began with the screening of two short films, “Juice” and “Bas Intezaar Hai.” These films highlighted everyday gender roles within households and the importance of equal opportunities in education for girls. The screening followed by an engaging reflection session where participants shared their thoughts and discussed the realities many women and girls face while pursuing their aspirations.
An interactive activity invited women to reflect on their childhood dreams, what they wanted to become, why those dreams mattered to them, and the challenges that prevented them from pursuing them. The discussion encouraged openness, shared experiences, and collective learning.
The celebration also included fun activities such as Musical Chairs and a Spoon and Marble race for both women and young girls, bringing laughter and energy to the gathering.
The program concluded with a vote of thanks, followed by the distribution of plants as a token of appreciation for the participants.
The day served as a meaningful reminder that when communities come together to support and uplift women, we move one step closer to a more equal and inclusive society.
