UN Women recognizes Neetu Chandra as a 'powerful women leader'!
Last month, actress-entrepreneur Neetu Chandra
visited UN Women, the United Nations organization (based in New York) to
discuss gender equality through their initiative ‘Planet 50-50 by 2030: Step It
Up For Gender Equality’.
Through their initiative, Red Elephant, an
initiative built on the foundations of story-telling, civilian peace building
and activism for gender equality, they have come up with #MoreThanMyBody
glorifying achievements by women across different strata of society.
Considering Neetu’s envious list of achievements
they built a photo essay of powerful women leaders who can be strong role
models for girls and young women by refuting the objectification that society
thrusts upon them. And so they invited entries from prominent women across the
globe comprising a photo of them designed into a photo essay, comprising a
25-word bio of them on the photograph, with the hashtag #MoreThanMyBody.
Her bio reads, “Neetu Chandra is a versatile actor,
successful entrepreneur, theatre artist, martial artist, a black belt in
Taekwondo, known for her philanthropic work, promotes NBA basketball in India,
a writer believes in humanity equalities of opportunities and hard work.”
