Meet Our Chingaari Fellows

Women make up a majority of the global health workforce, yet they hold only 25% of leadership roles. Through Chingaari—a Gender Transformative Leadership program—ICRW Asia, in partnership with Women in Global Health India, is elevating young women working in India’s health sector. We’ve convened a powerhouse of 46 early- and mid-career health professionals from community-based organizations across cities to unpack gender, patriarchy, feminism, and rights-based approaches to healthcare. Next, they’ll collectively explore how to apply these insights in their day-to-day work alongside their teams.
