The document discusses solo travel trends among men and women in India. It notes that while international data shows women solo travelers increasing at a higher rate than men, there is no available data for India. The objectives are to determine if there is a significant difference between male and female solo travelers in India, understand the reasons for any differences, and identify ways to address barriers for female solo travel. A survey, interviews, and discussions with hostel managers are proposed as part of the methodology to study solo travel motivations and challenges among both men and women in India.
