Vibhuti Patel: SDG 8: Decent Work & Economic Growth, The Urban World Vol. 12,...
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.

Human rights movement in India got its germination during the Emergency
Rule during 1975–1977 and developed during the post Emergency period.
Two major trends were marked by Civil liberties concerns and the rights
based perspectives. In the last 35 years, the human rights movement has been
enriched by collective wisdom emerging from the tribal movement, peasant
struggles, environmental movement, women’s liberation movement, child rights
movement, dalit movement and struggles of the differently abled persons. The
state and the mainstream institutions have had love hate relationships with
different types of human rights movements at different phases of history.Human rights movement in India got its germination during the Emergency

Vacha resource centre for Women Girls annual report 2018 19
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.

Prof. Vibhuti Patel Food Price Volatility in India, Vidura July-September 2019
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,
Prof. Vibhuti Patel & Ms. Radhika Khajuria Hindi Bharat me Rajnaitik Naarivad
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

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.
Laxmi menon and vibhuti patel grinding realities
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.

Prof. Vibhuti Patel on Women's Studies in Praxis- Dr.Neera Desai's Contributi...
The dialectical relationship between `pedagogy' and `praxis', vis-à-vis the `women's question', had been a matter of great concern for pioneers of Women's Studies (WS) in India. The need to study women's issues in academic institutions and to conduct research based on experiential material and affirmative action had begun to be discussed among Indian women's studies scholars by the early eighties (Desai and Patel, 1988). The discourse on this subject has proved to be a fruitful exercise for activists, academics, researchers, policy planners and the UN system. This paper aims to critically reflect on women’s development initiative in Udwada and surrounding villages of Pardi Taluka, South Gujarat by Dr. Neera Desai, Head of Sociology Department and the founding Director of Research Centre for Women’s Studies (till she retired in 1985). She continued working with the project even after her retirement and took upon responsibility as an honorary Director of Centre for Rural Development (founded by her in 1981) of SNDT Women’s University, Mumbai.
When Neeraben established Research Unit for Women’s Studies (RUWS) in 1974 in SNDT Women’s University, she had visualised action as an integral component of all programmes. In 1975, when UGC sponsorship came, RUWS became Research Centre for Women’s Studies (RCWS). Neeraben defined Women’s Studies (WS) as an academic discipline with five arms namely- research, documentation, teaching, training and action. Women’s studies as an academic discipline start with the premise that women have subordinate status in our society and the knowledge-base created by WS should be used for empowerment of women. Thus WS has a transformative potential in terms of changing the gender based power relations.

An Activist Fondly Known as Handewali Bai: Kamaltai Desai
(16-12-1921 to 20-2-2018)
By Vibhuti Patel
It seems strange sitting in the local train from Govandi to Andheri and writing homage to Kamaltai Desai. Many memories crowd my mind. With her passing away one could say an entire generation of pioneers of the women’s movement who were committed to the cause of working women have left us orphaned. A big void has been created in terms of leadership.
I first met Kamaltai in 1974, when she visited Vadodara along with Mrinaltai Gore, Ahalyatai Rangnekar, Manjutai Gandhi and Taratai Reddy to form Vadodara branch of Anti Price Rise Women's Committee. As a college girl, I was highly impressed by her egalitarian ethos, courage of conviction, work ethics, Spartan lifestyle and her commitment to labour standards. Kamaltai was always at the forefront of struggle against price-rise, hoarding, black marketing and corruption. Mrinaltai and Kamaltai had also taken up issues of water supply in newly formed suburns in North Mumbai and both were popularly known as ‘Handewali Bai” and “Paniwali Bai”.
Prof. Vibhuti Patel, "Obituary for Pravinaben Natubhai Patel" Sparrow newslet...
Pravinaben Patel was a matriarch with an electrifying personality. She was highly gifted, had a photographic memory, flair for picking up new languages-recipes-cultural legacies. She was a courageous woman who stood by me when I took revolutionary decisions of life-at the age of 10 (I decided not to wear gold in response to witnessing dowry harassment), became active in social movements when I was in high-school and continued to the same for the rest of my life. During my student days, whenever I was arrested for political work during emergency rule, my relatives would pressurize her to lock me in the home, but she would challenge them with a statement, if I lock her behind the door, she will jump out of the window. Instead of punishing her, we should discuss with her.”
Pravinaben’s dream of higher education got shattered as she had to run a joint family at the age of nineteen. She did not have mother-in-law. Her Father-in-law (my dada), unmarried sister-in-law (my foi) and unmarried brother-in-law (my kaka) were voracious readers, introvert and quite type; while my mom was extrovert, talkative and social. First of all, she targeted the later two for personal coaching to clear their S.S.C.E. exam. Even after leaving Vadodara and residing in other parts of the country, she continued her mission for educating boys and girls, men and women who were around her. My dada considered her as his daughter and asked her not to cover hear head. This created lot of unease among her in-laws circle.

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.
Laxmi menon and vibhuti patel grinding realities
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.

Prof. Vibhuti Patel on Women's Studies in Praxis- Dr.Neera Desai's Contributi...
The dialectical relationship between `pedagogy' and `praxis', vis-à-vis the `women's question', had been a matter of great concern for pioneers of Women's Studies (WS) in India. The need to study women's issues in academic institutions and to conduct research based on experiential material and affirmative action had begun to be discussed among Indian women's studies scholars by the early eighties (Desai and Patel, 1988). The discourse on this subject has proved to be a fruitful exercise for activists, academics, researchers, policy planners and the UN system. This paper aims to critically reflect on women’s development initiative in Udwada and surrounding villages of Pardi Taluka, South Gujarat by Dr. Neera Desai, Head of Sociology Department and the founding Director of Research Centre for Women’s Studies (till she retired in 1985). She continued working with the project even after her retirement and took upon responsibility as an honorary Director of Centre for Rural Development (founded by her in 1981) of SNDT Women’s University, Mumbai.
When Neeraben established Research Unit for Women’s Studies (RUWS) in 1974 in SNDT Women’s University, she had visualised action as an integral component of all programmes. In 1975, when UGC sponsorship came, RUWS became Research Centre for Women’s Studies (RCWS). Neeraben defined Women’s Studies (WS) as an academic discipline with five arms namely- research, documentation, teaching, training and action. Women’s studies as an academic discipline start with the premise that women have subordinate status in our society and the knowledge-base created by WS should be used for empowerment of women. Thus WS has a transformative potential in terms of changing the gender based power relations.

An Activist Fondly Known as Handewali Bai: Kamaltai Desai
(16-12-1921 to 20-2-2018)
By Vibhuti Patel
It seems strange sitting in the local train from Govandi to Andheri and writing homage to Kamaltai Desai. Many memories crowd my mind. With her passing away one could say an entire generation of pioneers of the women’s movement who were committed to the cause of working women have left us orphaned. A big void has been created in terms of leadership.
I first met Kamaltai in 1974, when she visited Vadodara along with Mrinaltai Gore, Ahalyatai Rangnekar, Manjutai Gandhi and Taratai Reddy to form Vadodara branch of Anti Price Rise Women's Committee. As a college girl, I was highly impressed by her egalitarian ethos, courage of conviction, work ethics, Spartan lifestyle and her commitment to labour standards. Kamaltai was always at the forefront of struggle against price-rise, hoarding, black marketing and corruption. Mrinaltai and Kamaltai had also taken up issues of water supply in newly formed suburns in North Mumbai and both were popularly known as ‘Handewali Bai” and “Paniwali Bai”.
Prof. Vibhuti Patel, "Obituary for Pravinaben Natubhai Patel" Sparrow newslet...
Pravinaben Patel was a matriarch with an electrifying personality. She was highly gifted, had a photographic memory, flair for picking up new languages-recipes-cultural legacies. She was a courageous woman who stood by me when I took revolutionary decisions of life-at the age of 10 (I decided not to wear gold in response to witnessing dowry harassment), became active in social movements when I was in high-school and continued to the same for the rest of my life. During my student days, whenever I was arrested for political work during emergency rule, my relatives would pressurize her to lock me in the home, but she would challenge them with a statement, if I lock her behind the door, she will jump out of the window. Instead of punishing her, we should discuss with her.”
Pravinaben’s dream of higher education got shattered as she had to run a joint family at the age of nineteen. She did not have mother-in-law. Her Father-in-law (my dada), unmarried sister-in-law (my foi) and unmarried brother-in-law (my kaka) were voracious readers, introvert and quite type; while my mom was extrovert, talkative and social. First of all, she targeted the later two for personal coaching to clear their S.S.C.E. exam. Even after leaving Vadodara and residing in other parts of the country, she continued her mission for educating boys and girls, men and women who were around her. My dada considered her as his daughter and asked her not to cover hear head. This created lot of unease among her in-laws circle.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
