Women Development Cell 

Women Empowerment and Gender Equality are the most important requirements for the upliftment and progress of our nation. In an effort to make Onda Thana Mahavidyalaya a strong kernel of gender sensitization, the Women Development Cell (WDC) was constituted in November 2016 under the convenorship of Dr. Chaitali Mandi. The Cell has both the faculty and students of the College as its members and works with an aim to create a gender sensitized community within campus as well as in the society. It has been organising varied academic, technical, medical, cultural and social events for the upliftment of women and spread the real importance of gender equality in society through College students. 

Objectives:

  • Living in a patriarchal society with deep-rooted and socio-cultural values of male superiority, the objective of the Cell is to help build an egalitarian society.
  • Helping female students live a balanced life where they neither lurk into depression nor take the abode of aggression.
  • To stress the development of women in every sphere.
  • To organize events and activities for women's empowerment.
  • To create an environment that will help women realize their full potential and give their best.

Vision:

  • Moulding and enlightening young minds and paving their way to grow into balanced and better human beings.

Mission:

  • To encourage female students to be self-reliant and economically independent.
  • To instil positive self-esteem and confidence in the female students so that they can make the right decisions in and for their lives.
  •  spreading awareness among the students about the social, legal and constitutional rights of women to prevent exploitation based on gender.
  • Making females cognizant about different kinds of violence: sexual, physical and mental and to further equip them with the knowledge and strength to fight against them.
  • Creating awareness about the need of gender equality.
  • Providing equal career opportunities to all genders.
  • Eliminating deep-rooted beliefs of gender bias and discrimination.
