“Women hold the power to transform their communities.” 🌍✨
This International Women’s Day, we celebrate women like Dr. Sanwita Shaiwalini, who are building resilient, wellbeing-centered communities—one conversation, one gathering, one family at a time.
In rural Jharkhand, India—where 79% of tribal people experience depression and healthcare access is scarce—Dr. Shaiwalini is leading change. Through community-driven mental health support, she empowers women to break cycles of poverty, addiction, and domestic violence, turning knowledge into action.
Our Speaker from Wellbeing Leaders Forum 2024:
Dr. Sanwita Shaiwalini :

Her quotes on women’s power in rural India:
“Women in the family tend to understand more.
Women tend to join our mental health support community, seeking a better, balanced life and driving change with hope.
Those with addictions often don’t listen, but women do. They engage, seek balance, and transform their lives.”
