Coinciding with the month dedicated to the undying spirit and courage of women, this exhibition serves as a poignant reminder of the significance of women's empowerment in building a more inclusive and equitable society. From intricate murals depicting women as custodians of art and culture to mesmerizing portrayals of divine feminine energy, Pooja Kashyap's artwork eloquently celebrates the resilience and dynamism of women across India.

The exhibition's centrepiece is Pooja Kashyap's mesmerizing portrayal of Ardhnarishwar, a divine coalescence of Shiva and Devi. This artwork symbolizes the intrinsic power and balance of feminine and masculine energies, serving as a poignant reminder of women's indomitable spirit and capacity to shape society.

Overall, the exhibition is not only an acknowledgement of women's contributions but also a celebration of their achievements.

The W20 Women Achiever’s Award is an initiative aimed at recognizing and celebrating the achievements of women across various sectors and industries in the country As an organization that is deeply committed to the cause of women's empowerment, Aalekh Foundation felt that it was important to create a platform that would not only honor the contributions of women but also inspire others to follow in their footsteps.

The decision to organize the W 20 Women Achiever Award was also motivated by the fact that India is currently holding the Presidency of the G 20 As part of its responsibilities as the G 20 Presidency, India is expected to focus on a range of issues related to women's empowerment and gender equality Aalekh Foundation saw this as an opportunity to align its efforts with the broader agenda of the G 20 and to contribute to the national discourse on women's empowerment
