BRIEF DESCRIPTION:
The IIC Cell at SMIT celebrated International Women's Day in collaboration with the Department of Management Studies on 8th March 2024, in the C - Quad. The event served as both inspiration and acknowledgment of the importance of gender equality in social and professional spheres. To achieve the event's aim, a poster competition was organized, with six teams of students participating enthusiastically with their creative and innovative ideas, all while keeping the theme of the day in mind. In total, 30 students were divided into six teams, with five members in each team, alongside other volunteers who assisted in managing the entire event. These six teams showcased various aspects of gender equality, including the empowerment of women, the evolution of women's roles from the past to the present, and strategies for overcoming challenges.
The event was graced by the presence of AD(A) Prof. Sangeeta Jha, AD(SA) Prof. Nayan Kamal Bhattacharyya, Vice President and Convener respectively of the IIC Cell, along with Dr. Bikash Sharma and Dr. Dhruba Ningombam, and Dr. Bibeth Sharma, Head of the Management Department. All dignitaries visited the six poster presentations and appreciated the hard work and innovative ideas displayed by the teams.
The competition's voting was conducted online, and Team 3 (BBA XI SEM.) emerged as the winner.
In honor of International Women's Day, the IIC Cell felicitated female faculty members, including AD(A), and students as well. A high tea was provided by the IIC Cell to all the felicitators. Additionally, a selfie point was set up at the venue by the volunteers, which remained a center of attraction throughout the event.
The event concluded with the distribution of hampers to the winning team. Dr. Bikash Sharma announced the winning team's names with a positive note on International Women's Day. The prizes were presented to the team by Dr. Manjari & Ms. Soumili, the coordinators of the event.
Overall, the event was a tremendous success, conveying a positive message emphasizing equality and gender empowerment.
