About Non-Collegiate Women’s Education Board (NCWEB)

When a girl ignores external objects and develops foresight and a vibrant attitude through the power of knowledge, she becomes a provider of the wealth of skies and earth. Atharvaveda 14.1.6, Non-Collegiate Women’s Education Board (NCWEB) has been silently contributing to women’s empowerment through education since 1944. At that time, the idea was to provide a platform for girl students to take examinations with special coaching without attending regular classes. Over the years, this gave shape to an institution that provided for the needs of educating girls who were in a disadvantageous position to attend regular classes in colleges. NCWEB is a constituent part of the University of Delhi and is in a unique disposition to endow those who have the potential to change and give thrust to socio-economic development in society through education. This institution has an arrangement where the girl students attend classes during Saturdays / Sundays and in academic breaks across the twenty-six Centres that are being run in the constituent colleges of the University of Delhi for undergraduate courses and for postgraduate courses, at one NCWEB Centre respectively.

About the Seminar

Women are dynamic leaders of change, galvanizing women and men to get involved, claim their rights, strengthen their communities, and protect their planet. Their participation is fundamental to democratic governance. Still, women have a long way to go towards equal representation in positions of power and leadership, whether in corporate boardrooms or presidential cabinets.
In India, there are several examples of women leaders dating back to ancient times. The Ima Market, also known as the Nupi Keithel (English: Women’s Market), is a women-only market located in the heart of Imphal in the state of Manipur. Meitei: Ima Keithel, which translates to “Mothers’ Market is one of the unique business initiatives in the world managed exclusively by women. Among many successful women entrepreneurs in the country, Kalpana Saroj stands out for her business acumen. Her climb from the Mumbai slums to CEO of Kamani Tubes with a personal asset valued at $112 million has earned her the title of “the original Slumdog Millionaire.” Co-founder of Infosys and chair of its foundation, Sudha Murty is a philanthropist, author, and educator. Indian tycoon and billionaire Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw is an entrepreneur founder and executive chairperson of Biocon Limited.
