あらすじ・解説
Recent data from the Periodic Labour Force Survey, reveals a concerning trend. Despite some improvements in recent years, India's female labour force participation rate continues to remain alarmingly low. Why aren’t women participating in paid work? Or are we not counting them adequately?
To guide us through this exploration, we are honored to have with us today Dr. Ashwini Deshpande, a distinguished Professor of Economics and the Founding Director of the Centre for Economic Data and Analysis at Ashoka University, India. Through our podcast/conversation today, we aim to unravel the reasons behind the persistently low female labour participation rates, understand the root causes and explore a paradigm shift in how we perceive women’s work.
