Women's Equality Day

 The Department of Physical Science at Mahe Cooperative College of Teacher Education organized a special program on Women’s Equality Day on 26 August 2024. The event aimed to promote awareness about gender equality and to inspire students through literary perspectives on women’s rights.

The highlight of the program was a talk delivered by Safeer PV, a student of the college, on the topic “Equality Inspired from Virginia Woolf’s A Room of One’s Own.” In his talk, Safeer discussed the significance of personal space, financial independence, and equal opportunities for women, as portrayed in Woolf’s work. The session encouraged the audience to reflect on the importance of equality in education and society at large.

Faculty members and students actively participated in the discussion that followed, sharing their views and drawing connections between Woolf’s ideas and contemporary challenges.

The event concluded with a note of appreciation from the Head of the Department, commending Safeer PV for his insightful presentation and encouraging students to engage in more such thought-provoking discussions.
