Azad Foundation’s Alumni Meets united 1,500 alumni from its programs, including women drivers and community change agents, in a series of events celebrating diversity, equality, and women’s inclusion in non-traditional skill education and workforce. In Delhi, over 300 alumni gathered on November 26 to celebrate Constitution Day with the Kamla Bhasin Award, honoring gender equality champions in non-traditional livelihoods for women in South Asia. The event, filled with inspiring songs and performances, paid homage to Kamla Bhasin, a renowned feminist activist.

In Kolkata, on International Human Rights Day, Azad partnered with KYN Bengal and Swayam Kolkata, amplifying the voices of cis and trans women drivers and trainees through poems, songs, and panel discussions. Special guests, including Urmimala Bose and Srovonti Bose Bandyopadhyay, enriched the event with their performances.

In Jaipur, under the theme “Main, Tum Aur Hum,” the alumni meet highlighted the experiences of women working in non-traditional roles, like driving ambulances and running businesses, and celebrated the achievements of adolescent alumni excelling in various fields. The event also featured a discussion on mental health facilitated by WYSA, concluding with collective singing and dancing, fostering a sense of solidarity and co-learning among the participants.
