Modi's Vision to Empower Women

By: Ed. Punam Kumari

India has witnessed a transformative shift in women’s roles and impact across various sectors over the past decade. From agriculture to aeronautics, business to battlefields, classrooms to corporate offices and playgrounds to parliament, women have redefined gender equality narratives nationwide. This book celebrates this indomitable spirit, exploring women’s struggles, triumphs and significant contributions in shaping modern India. It reflects the evolving influence of women in contemporary Indian society and celebrates their achievements in diverse fields. This book highlights how Indian women have begun to tap into this vast potential, driving a paradigm shift. Each chapter honours women who have challenged societal norms, driven economic growth, and defied conventions. PM Modi's vision of women as nation-builders is evident in the recent law reserving 33% of parliamentary seats for women and initiatives like ‘Lakhpati Didi’ and ‘Drone Didi; empowering female entrepreneurs and revolutionising agriculture. Empowered women contribute Significantly to economic growth, break poverty cycles and enhance community decision-making, essential for realising India’s full potential. A real tribute to the untiring efforts of out empowered women.

Decolonizing Yoga: from Critical to Cosmic Consciousness

Feminist-Informed Yoga and a Jain Way of Life

By: Punam Mehta Ph.D.

This book was written for diasporic South Asian women who have experienced microaggression or discrimination in modern yoga spaces in Canada or abroad. Punam Mehta, Ph.D. reveals how the yoga movement in Canada has been harmful to yoga’s grounding in Jain history, to South Asian social and cultural development, and to Jain diasporic women born and raised in Canada. She argues that marginalized women could recenter themselves by practicing yoga to overcome discrimination based on their race, gender, sexuality, class, and/or abilities within the context of today’s culture. The author seeks to answer questions such as: • What is the theoretical foundation of feminist-informed yoga in contemporary culture? • How can a feminist-informed yoga be applied as a healing approach to marginalized women? • How can contemporary yoga offer simple ways for marginalized women to feel good about themselves? The author highlights the removal of Canadian-born Jain mothers and more generally, South Asian mothers who face systemic racism in yoga studios. She also reveals how yoga, practiced in the Jain way of life, offers a holistic approach to well-being and spiritual health.

The Vulnerable Andaman and Nicobar Islands

A Study of Disasters and Response

By: Punam Tripathi

This first full-length book addresses disasters in the context of vulnerability of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands that comprise 572 islands in the Bay of Bengal. It looks at the disasters that the islands have experienced in the last 200 years and analyzes major disasters since colonization by the British. Raising some critical questions, this book attempts to understand the overall profile of disasters – the facts, causes, damage, response and recovery – in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands. It discusses earthquakes, cyclones, tsunami and epidemics, as well as impacts of World War II, the penal colony and the post-Independence resettlement on the tribal population. The work will serve as a rich resource with its detailed tables, figures, maps and diagrams; appendices; and database ranging from travelogues, Census of India reports and fieldwork to Right to Information (RTI) petitions that collect hitherto unknown facts. The book will be useful to students of geography, disasters and disasters management, climate and environmental studies, history, sociology, island and ocean studies, and South Asian studies.

Africa's Pulse Fall 2015

By: Punam Chuhan-Pole

Africa's Pulse is a biannual publication containing an analysis of the near-term macro-economic outlook for the region. It also includes a section focusing on a topic that represents a particular development challenges for the continent. It is produced by the Office of the Chief Economist for the Africa Region.This issue is an analysis of issues shaping Africa's economic future. Growth remains stable in Sub-Saharan Africa. Some countries are seeing a slowdown, but the region's economic prospects remain broadly favorable. External risks of higher global financial market volatility and lower growth in emerging market economies weigh on the downside. In several Sub-Saharan African countries, large budgetary imbalances are a source of vulnerability to exogenous shocks and underscore the need for rebuilding fiscal buffers in these countries. The Ebola outbreak is exacting a heavy human and economic toll on affected countries and, if not rapidly contained, the risk of wider contagion grows. Without a scale-up of effective interventions, growth would slow markedly not only in the core countries (Guinea, Liberia, and Sierra Leone), but also in the sub region as transportation, cross-border trade, and supply chains are severely disrupted. In Sub-Saharan Africa, growth in agriculture and services is more effective at reducing poverty than growth in industry. Structural transformation has a role to play in accelerating poverty reduction in Sub-Saharan Africa. Increasing agricultural productivity will be critical to fostering structural transformation. Boosting rural income diversification can facilitate this transformation, as well. Investments in rural public goods and services (for example, education, health, rural roads, electricity and ICT), including in small towns, will be conducive to lifting productivity in the rural economy."--Résumé de l'éditeur.
