Like monthly electricity bills and a monthly budget for shopping, people should also earmark funds on a regular basis for social work, Nidarshana Gowani, founder of Ankhibai Ghamandiram Gowani Trust, advised.

Ms Gowani detailed the work her organisation does for tribals, transgenders, sex workers and for making the HPV vaccine reach maximum benefactors. "Transgenders have their woes. They are getting educated, they are often back dancers in music videos. But they complain about not getting their rights, or access to schemes or employment equitably," she said at the NDTV World Summit 2024.

Sex workers also live far from their home and work to care for their parents and educate their children, she said. "We do fixed deposits for them from the post office, which mature in three years. Those funds can be used by the sex workers to start businesses," Ms Gowani said.

About

As the Hon'ble Prime Minister Narendra Modi settles into his third term, India's global influence continues to expand, reshaping both geopolitical dynamics and economic landscapes. Amidst ongoing conflicts in Europe and West Asia, India has emerged as a responsible global power, adeptly navigating complex international relations and offering leadership.

In this transformative era, the world turns to India for guidance. It is within this context that NDTV proudly presents its flagship event, NDTV World Summit 2024 – The India Century, scheduled for October 21st and 22nd.

Continuing NDTV’s legacy of pioneering media, we will also launch NDTV World at the summit, with the tagline: "Seeing the World from Where India Stands." NDTV World aims to be a leading voice from Asia and India on the global stage.
