On Women’s Day 2021, India’s leading conglomerate Godrej Group through its various businesses came together to lead the way in promoting women leadership. This year, the global theme for Women’s Day is #ChooseToChallenge, where everyone is being asked to take the responsibility of their own thoughts and actions to create a beautiful, equal world. The campaign profoundly urges every person irrespective of their gender, culture, ability, and orientation, to first challenge the deeply wired biases and stereotypes within themselves, before asking others to do so externally. Ultimately, changing and creating a beautiful equal world.
The group digital film aims to highlight the fact that, this women’s day instead of just wishing her and expecting things to change, one should rather instigate the change and challenge the stereotype within himself or herself. Changing from within is what will guarantee the fulfilment of a dream of an inclusive world.
