Awareness Seminar on “Understanding Gender and Breaking Stereotypes”

Date: 7 October 2026
Venue: Classroom, GJIMT Campus

GJIMT’s Women Empowerment Committee organised an Awareness Seminar on “Understanding Gender and Breaking Stereotypes” to promote gender equality, inclusivity and awareness about the impact of traditional gender roles. The seminar witnessed the participation of BBA students, who engaged in an initiative aimed at encouraging equal respect, dignity and opportunities for all.

The seminar highlighted how gender-based stereotypes can influence individual choices, behaviour and opportunities. Students were encouraged to question traditional assumptions, develop an inclusive mindset and recognise the importance of equal rights in education, professional life and society. The session also emphasised the role of young people in challenging discriminatory attitudes and promoting mutual respect.

A key highlight was the Pledge for Gender Equality and Breaking Stereotypes, in which all participating students pledged to reflect on their viewpoints, challenge gender-based stereotypes, respect equal rights and opportunities, and contribute to positive change within their families and communities.
