The position of the panel is going beyond fundamental human rights and places gender equality as a necessary foundation for a peaceful, prosperous and sustainable society. Multiple evidence point to reversals of hard-achieved gains due to COVID-19 pandemic induced workspace changes, health and economic vulnerabilities particularly due to dis-proportionate informal women workforce and risks on security and social protection. It is now well evidenced that deprivation is multi-dimensional and strongly anchored in the agency of the person. Deliberations will explore pathways to integrate gender in development engagement pathways impacting women\u2019s condition and position both within households and outside. Enhanced confidence, mobility, solidarity contribute to agency outcomes, these however, could easily be constrained by the institutional structures eg. women\u2019s property ownership. A key exploration of interest is how we make our public programmes more gender intentional, give its universal reach there is potential of contributing to both instrumental and normative impact on how men and women view gender relations in different facets of society and what they can do individually and collectively to pivot rules of game to a more just and equitable way. \nThe Session will be moderated by<a href=\"https:\/\/in.linkedin.com\/in\/madhu-krishna-16720811\" target=\"_blank\"> Ms.Madhu Krishna<\/a> Deputy Director at Bill &#038; Melinda Gates Foundation with leading feminists, practitioners and thought leaders.\n\n<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6d084ca elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"6d084ca\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/us02web.zoom.us\/webinar\/register\/WN_Erfk2a0MR2aEgT5HirAtdw\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"elementor-button-link elementor-button elementor-size-sm\" role=\"button\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Register Now<\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-22d3dc3 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"22d3dc3\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-6e19e22\" data-id=\"6e19e22\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-68e65c4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"68e65c4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5dcdceb elementor-icon-list--layout-inline elementor-list-item-link-full_width elementor-widget elementor-widget-icon-list\" data-id=\"5dcdceb\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"icon-list.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<ul class=\"elementor-icon-list-items elementor-inline-items\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<li class=\"elementor-icon-list-item elementor-inline-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-icon-list-icon\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"far fa-clock\"><\/i>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-icon-list-text\">5:30 -

Rural India has witnessed the decade of DAY-NRLM, with presence extending to 5054 blocks and 70 million poor women, today these collectives touch majority of poor on an engendered community platform, simultaneously dis-intermediating the demand-delivery disconnect which makes it uniquely placed to make significant difference to rural India, home to world\u2019s largest number of multi-dimensional poor people with women and children bearing brunt of multiple deprivations. Poverty in India is now mostly a rural and regional phenomenon underscored with sharp social and occupational etchings. Success of women collective over the last decade has created new expectations for it to play pivotal role in addressing rural poverty and inter-generational mobility. Covid 19 and consequent poverty slide is disconcerting, however, it is expected the long run tailwinds impacting economic poverty will bounce back, these include participation of adolescent girls in secondary, higher secondary, and higher education; decline in fertility, universalization of women collectives : as women came together to form SHGs it created an identity outside of house and with support of NRLM\/SRLM collectives or SHGs leveraged skills and diverse livelihood opportunities. Today, development intervention is anchored around these collectives addressing economic, social empowerment and bringing new solidarity, voice and influence. There is great opportunity to leverage collectives beyond they being SHG member to as citizens with access to entitlements, producers and consumers of good and services \u2013 as economic agents, contributing to improving decision making, self-confidence, self-efficacy, and reduce gender-based violence.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><em>The conversation with experts, development practitioners and policy administrators is hosted by Anjani Singh.

The just published World Development Report 2021 calls for a new social contract for data\u2014one that enables the use and reuse of data to create economic and social value, promotes equitable opportunities to benefit from data, and fosters citizens\u2019 trust. Deploying data for better governance, public service delivery and supporting public accountability is expected to intensify in coming years. Many initiatives have got fast-tracked during the pandemic \u2013 showing its power and also tensions. For long, one of the safest way for powerful to marginalise issues, voice was data invisibility; reflected in skewed contemporary discourse on rural issues marked by a lack of quality and sufficiency of data, research and analytics. The effect of this gap is often observed during engagements with opinion makers, policy formulators or even potential investors in the rural sector where high quality and reliable data and analytics. Apart from paucity of readily useable data, there is challenge in sourcing the right kind of data and its veracity. Today, academic and research institutions, governments, not-for-profits, funding agencies need reliable, objective data for measuring progress.

GoI\u2019s NYP-2014 and National Policy for Skill Development and Entrepreneurship 2015 is geared to reap demographic dividend, unfortunately 2% of the workforce is formally skilled, and the ILO estimates that more than 10.6% of young people remain unemployed. The youth labor participation rate is steadily falling with the sharpest decline among women and in rural areas, India, today has a number of unemployed youth outweighing that of any other country. The very large population of <b>Opportunity Youth<\/b> (we are calling the 15-29 age group Neither in Education Employment or Training NEET as OY), that\u2019s 108 million youth in India roughly a third of the total youth population.

Much discussed and long pending efforts for addressing fragmented health governance system and augmentation of infrastructure particularly has been prioritised for COVID response. In this critical situation, based on recent experiences there is an opportunity to reimagine solutions, streamline long pending health governance issues. Present situation has spotlighted systemic deficiencies and gaps in basic and critical health infrastructure at different levels.  Therefore, possibly an opportunity exists to institute systems and processes in partnering with local communities to solve issues and leverage the productively power of new technologies, resources and emerging public mandate and go beyond \u2018bounce-back\u2019 to pre-Covid levels, and build better to achieve  universal access to basic healthcare in a new design of public health system brining 4Ps (Public-Private- People- Panchayats) together to ensure better and equitable health towards a more sustainable future.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Post 1978 Declaration of Alma-Ata, community\u2019s contribution to health systems has been recognized as central for primary health care. Unfortunately, less attention has been given to this dimension even in communities who have traditionally reflected mobilisation of collective resources in more mundane affairs like paddy planting, house repair and such like; National Health Mission and later placement of ASHA\/Mitani\/Saiyya and such community-based resource acknowledged, however, the dominant focus remained on technical, economic and management drivers in public health systems. The limitations of the health services both public and private (more important now given curative care has become very costly and the larger policy framework places this with private sector notwithstanding Ayushman Bharat and such initiatives), the inequality of access for vulnerable people, remote\/hard-to-reach or resource-poor regions requires a new way of organising \u201csupply of care\u201d  working within the \u201cgivens\u201d of public and private health system and explore how community\u2019s resource in the form of collectives and institutions of local governance, their leadership and industriousness to make healthcare access better. <\/p>\n\n<p align=\"justify\"><em>The conversation with leading practitioners engaged in instituting transition of covid response to improved public health system, will explore pathways to establish capacities and systems that the surge capacities visible in covid response can be sustained through technology, digital support, infrastructure augmentation, leveraging the expanded community space as healthcare spaces outside of formal health infrastructure like hospitals, augment the governance architecture and tapping the possibilities available with additional resources under 15th Finance Commission and deployment of technology to solve for infrastructure and human resource gaps. <\/em>\n\u2003\n<\/p> <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cdab3fa elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"cdab3fa\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/us02web.zoom.us\/webinar\/register\/WN_3yMyGtZ_Q8W1kgnZrC926w\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"elementor-button-link elementor-button elementor-size-sm\" role=\"button\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Register Now<\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-cfe1ed9 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"cfe1ed9\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-cce5517\" data-id=\"cce5517\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ed6909d elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"ed6909d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f5e247a elementor-icon-list--layout-inline elementor-list-item-link-full_width elementor-widget elementor-widget-icon-list\" data-id=\"f5e247a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"icon-list.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<ul class=\"elementor-icon-list-items elementor-inline-items\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<li class=\"elementor-icon-list-item elementor-inline-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-icon-list-icon\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"far fa-clock\"><\/i>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-icon-list-text\">6:30 -

The deliberations are contextualised in the backdrop of the emerging opportunities, crisis, impact and new insights emerging from pandemic response. Session seeks to reflect and drive a shift in the intent, role and responses from society, government and market; and guidance on forging a new higher equilibrium of state-society-market relationships guided by the vision of a \u201cNew Rural\u201d which is prosperous, socially cohesive, resilient with economic and social advancement opportunities. <\/em><\/p>\n \n<p align=\"justify\">India is projected to remain predominantly rural by 2050 and more, today the rural economy constitutes 46 % of national income, with two-thirds of the population including India\u2019s young and 70% workforce. The pandemic has brought to fore fissures, particularly in rural and rural-urban transition zones. These come on the back of profound changes experienced by India\u2019s rural economy in last two decades which have not been fully factored in about two-third of rural income is now generated in non-agricultural activities, more than half of the value added in the manufacturing sector is contributed by rural areas without any significant employment gains. Rural and migrants are both source of strength and attention; as overall economy slumped during the Covid pandemic, agriculture showed remarkable resilience and growth; our cities and factories can&#8217;t run without migrant workforce; the return of migrants to cities within a short time and much lesser migration in second wave showed limits of rural and transition habitats to provide productive engagement and also to cope with health crisis. The cleavages visible with informal and fragile jobs, poverty slide reported in research by APU and Pew asks of the <b>New Rural<\/b> to become a productive habitat of human development, social and economic mobility. Rural, peri-rural, circular migrants are younger than ever; dominated by young, it is agile, aspirational, with higher school years, with mobile and digital access and a highly diversified household economy which includes agriculture and allied sector, trading and heavily connected with urban\/migration economy. Government\u2019s effort in the last decade has transformed Ruralscape with better road connectivity, housing, sanitation, basic services like Ujjwala, social protection directly reaching eligible and most importantly with better digital connect, mobility, transport and other basic infrastructure, making for a surge of new opportunities and growth. The increased vulnerabilities with higher indebtedness, fragile informal occupations and weak resilience is another side of the opportunity divide. Emerging Ruralscape is characterised with younger demography connected to technology influenced shift in locus of initiative to local, higher integration with gig economy and job-tech platforms, linkages to industrial agriculture, new service economy and new job roles in rurban economic economic continuum. The vulnerabilities with water shortages both for life and livelihoods, climate risks, and the volatility of ecological footprint on rural livelihoods is real and needs urgent redressal. <\/p>\n\n<p align=\"justify\">The session will deliberate on a new approach and locate catalysts in Ruralscape eg. Rurban Economic Clusters, Improved Habitat with basic services and infrastructure for human development; making for productive transition of rural society and economy. The multidimensional impact of the pandemic has brought into focus the need for better understanding of the future Rural and role of the government, society and market in creating opportunities and mitigating vulnerabilities both in short and long-term. While the government plays a critical role through welfare measures, investments, policy cues on strengthening rural infrastructure and economic restoration, there has been agile and last mile response from panchayats and community action like women collectives. Civil society, including philanthropies, numerous NGOs, Women Collectives have provided humanitarian relief and now more systematic support on healthcare, economic restoration amplifying financial resources with commitment, using new technology. Financial resources and support from corporates and small businesses while themselves hit with job losses, and decline in growth, wherever possible have come forth to support. Session will explore new engagement lines for participation of the better endowed in various facets of Ruralscape like habitat development, supply-chain integration, outsourcing of work to where labour is &#8211; franchisee\/decentralised manufacturing and such like can be productively created for robust recovery and reduced inequalities. <\/p>\n\n\n<\/p> \n \n\n\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bfa0e21 elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"bfa0e21\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/us02web.zoom.us\/webinar\/register\/WN_AVVVfLT3R4GBm3QQcrHDTA\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"elementor-button-link elementor-button elementor-size-sm\" role=\"button\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Register Now<\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-d44ba99 elementor-hidden-desktop elementor-hidden-tablet elementor-hidden-phone elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"d44ba99\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-8513fc6\" data-id=\"8513fc6\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-95d4458 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"95d4458\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d66bf18 elementor-icon-list--layout-inline elementor-list-item-link-full_width elementor-widget elementor-widget-icon-list\" data-id=\"d66bf18\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"icon-list.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<ul class=\"elementor-icon-list-items elementor-inline-items\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<li class=\"elementor-icon-list-item elementor-inline-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-icon-list-icon\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"far fa-clock\"><\/i>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-icon-list-text\">6:30 -

However, there are wide disparities across the nation due to diversity that exists within various geographies, cultural and social contexts. In rural India, particularly in the villages of Central and East India, these challenges are further exacerbated by abject poverty and intersectionality of hierarchies especially in tribal, Dalit and other historically marginalised communities. A girl child born in rural India is two generations behind her sister in urban India and this gap continues in her lifetime.
