Vibhuti Patel: SDG 8: Decent Work & Economic Growth, The Urban World Vol. 12,...VIBHUTI PATEL
The SDG 8 in the Indian Context articulated by Niti Ayog proclaims sustained economic growth, higher levels of productivity and technological innovation. Encouraging entrepreneurship and job creation are key to this, as are effective measures to eradicate forced labour, slavery and human trafficking. With these targets in mind, the goal is to achieve full and productive employment, and decent work, for all women and men by 2030. The GoI has stated Skill India Mission, stand up India Mission, Start-up India Mission and Mudra Lona schemes for generation of self-employment over last 5 years. But in reality work participation as well as quality of Indian women have declined drastically.

Vacha resource centre for Women Girls annual report 2018 19VIBHUTI PATEL
Vacha has impacted the lives of 77784 individuals through its creative and engaging programmes in Mumbai, Thane and Palghar Districts for building capacities in different areas.
Out of these, 70343 were extension beneficiaries, who have attended our events such as street play performances, meetings, rallies, newsletter release functions and public debates. Of these, 70 % were girls and women and 30% were boys and men
A total of 7441 i.e. 10 per cent were direct beneficiaries, who enrolled themselves for Vacha’s regular sessions, workshops, trainings, career fairs, gender and health fairs and camps and film screenings with follow up discussions on gender issues. Of these, 48% were girls, 23% were boys, 25% were women and 2% were men. We work with boys as they too are deprived, though the prevalent son preference gives them a preference at home for education and mobility. However with gender sensitisation, teenage boys become an excellent support group for girls, and together with girls in equal leadership roles, work on community issues.
The community residents (contemptuously called ‘slum dwellers’ though they themselves identify with the term basti for the community) are usually migrants from socioeconomically backward and very poor districts who have come in search of livelihood. Girls are affected in multiple ways as, besides the over arching gender and poverty issues many of them belong to religious and linguistic minorities. All of them have to deal with the orthodox mind set of elders as they still follow rather feudal practices of their villages.

Main concerns of women’s movement in India have been:
• Men outnumber women in India, unlike in most countries where the reverse is the case.
• Majority of women go through life in a state of nutritional stress - they are anaemic and malnourished. Girls and women face nutritional discrimination within the family, eating last and least.
• The average Indian woman has little control over her own fertility and reproductive health.
• Literacy rate is lower in women as compared to men and far fewer girls than boys go to school. Even when girls are enrolled, many of them drop out of school.
• Women’s work is undervalued and unrecognized. Women work longer hours than men and carry the major share of household and community work, which is unpaid and invisible.
• Once ‘women’s work’ is professionalized, there is practically a monopoly on it by men. For example, the professional chefs are still largely men. The Sexual Division of Labour ensures that women will always end up as having to prioritize unpaid domestic work over paid work. It is not a ‘natural’ biological difference that lies behind the sexual division of labour, but certain ideological assumptions.
• Women generally earn a far lower wage than men doing the same work, despite the Equal Remuneration Act of 1976. In no State do women and men earn equal wages in agriculture.
• Women are under-represented in various bodies of governance as well as decision-making positions in both public and private sectors.
• Women are legally discriminated against in land and property rights. Most women do not own property in their own names and do not get a share of parental property.
• Women face violence inside and outside the family throughout their lives.

At a time when hunger, food and nutrition security of the population and food sovereignty itself are at
stake, Vibhuti Patel looks at the effects of agricultural liberalisation in India, the dynamics of the food
market, the double standards of the developed nations, the failure of the Doha round of Trade Talks,
and possible remedies. Developing social safety nets for the socio-economically marginalised and poor
famers as well as urban, rural and tribal consumers needs the combined and concerted efforts of state
and non-state players,

Last 50 years of feminist activism in India has managed to challenge the 5000 years of patriarchal order by striking at root of exploitation and oppression, subjugation and degradation of women by deconstructing covert and overt violence against women in personal and public lives, to question pillars of male domination within family, kinship networks, organized religion, media and state. Series of legal reforms with respect to family laws dealing with marriage, divorce, custody of child/children, maintenance, inheritance; domestic violence; sexual violence, workplace harassment, maternity benefits and gender budgeting have become the part of an official agenda due to feminist movement. For this, pioneers of women’s rights movement and women’s studies scholars worked in unison.

For the 17th Lok Sabha election,
major political parties
have again shied away
from fielding women. The
Bharatiya Janata Party
(BJP) and Congress, two of the
biggest political outfits in the country,
have given less than 12 per cent
seats to women.
Under-representation of women in
seat distribution for candidature in
the Upper and Lower Houses of the
Parliament of India and for
Legislative Assemblies and
Legislative Councils of the state
government has been debated in
SAARC countries time and again.
Our neighbouring countries have
women’s quota in parliament as follows:
Bangladesh - 13 per cent (2008),
Pakistan - 17.5 per cent (2002) and
Nepal - 33 per cent (2016).

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs-2015-2030) are a derivative of the Millennium Development Goals (2000-2015), which spell out the following values: freedom, equality, solidarity, tolerance, respect for nature, and shared responsibility. They are a clarion call of 189 governments, on behalf of their citizens, to “free our fellow men, women and children from the abject and dehumanizing conditions of extreme poverty, to which more than a billion of them are currently subjected”.

Gender promises made by the state gets translated into gender
responsive budgetary commitments of the Union ministries and
departments. Like previous years, The Gender Budget Statement
(GBS) for the year 2019-20, in its Part A has provided schemes and
programmes 100% targeted for women and Part B had given the
schemes that are expected to use minimum of 30 per cent of the total
allocation for women and girls. The GBS is significant as it is the only
source of verifiable, quantitative information on government's efforts
at ensuring budgetary commitments towards women. The overall
financial allocation for the Union for 2019-20 (BE) is Rs. 1,31,700
crore, while the same for 2018-19 (BE) was Rs 1,24,367 crore. Thus
there is an increase of Rs. 7333 crores in the current budget
People’s power to defend themselves
against life threatening and ever
increasing economic crisis and social
strife, is the need of the hour. ‘Power to
the People’ can correct damages done
by inhuman macro-economic policies
that attack basic survival base of the
poor and the marginalised sections of
the society namely workers, poor and
marginal farmers, Dalits, Tribals, and
ethnic/religious minorities.
Experiences of the past 40 years have
shown how the social movements put
pressure on societal systems to
accelerate transformation, respond
directly to the experiences of people and
ensure social security and social
protection. The Right Based Approach
concerned about human development
that includes health, education,
employment, representation in decision
making bodies, and the
democratic processes in governance,
have resulted in the transformation of
people’s lives for the better.

Women constitute a majority of the work force in the informal sector
everywhere. The informal sector is unregulated, unprotected, supports the
formal sector and so matches the profile of women in a society organised on
patriarchal values and practices. In South Asia, more than 90 per cent of the
workforce is employed in the informal economy. The informal economy also
acts as a sponge, absorbing retrenched, uneducated and untrained workers.
Though women workers in the informal economy (the unorganised sector)
are engaged in employment activities which contribute significantly to the
GDP of a country, their economic and social contribution remains hidden,
under or unvalued. The heterogeneous nature of the informal economy
ranging from part time and irregular workers in East Asia to home based, self
employed, sub contract workers in South east and South Asia, makes
computing the economic as well as social contribution by workers of this
sector difficult.
