Radhika Devi MBA, M.Com., M.Sc.(Psy.), M.Phil., Ph.D. Director, Women’s Studies Centre, Madurai Kamaraj University, Madurai and Dr. C Subbulakshmi, Asst Professor co-ordinated in the organization of the webinar.

He also explained about how women play a major role in our society with greater risk of infection and responsibilities.
Our women play a major role in our society with greater risk of infection in home as well as at work. Nearly 83 percent of the frontline workers are female who have consistently been putting their lives at risk. In rural areas, women accounting for 1 million Accredited Social Health Activist (ASHA) workers are the core providers of health care and medical services. Women in India, both individually and collectively are working fanatically on the frontlines to rein in an ever-worsening pandemic. Yet, despite their significant contribution toward the management of the crisis, women continue to remain invisible in both the global as well as the national discourse on women’s leadership in the COVID-19 crisis. It is time to recognize the efforts of these unseen heroes of the crisis and acknowledge the critical roles that women play in Indian society. 55 college students and professors of Women’s Study Centre, Madurai Kamaraj University participated & got benefitted through this webinar.
