Job Particulars
About Company
The
Centre for Women’s Development Studies(CWDS) was established on 19th
April 1980, in the middle of the International Women’s Decade, by a
group of men and women, who were involved in the preparation of the
first ever comprehensive government report on the ‘Status of Women in
India’ entitled‘Towards Equality’ (Report of the Committee on the Status
of Women in India, (CSWI), Government of India) and who were later
associated with the Women’s Studies Programme of the Indian Council of
Social Science Research (ICSSR). The Advisory Committee on Women's
Studies of the ICSSR recommended the need for an autonomous institute to
build on the knowledge already generated, but with a wider mandate and
resources to expand its activities in research and action. The
recommendation was accepted by the ICSSR, and communicated to the
Women’s Bureau of the Ministry of Social Welfare, Government of India.
