Chandigarh, July 28 -- St Joseph's Sr Sec School hosted a capacity building programme on gender sensitivity in schools, led by two educators: Isha Anand, a British Council scholar, national-level resource person and content creator with NCERT, and Ruppy, a CBSE-certified trainer and gold medallist in Geography. Both resource persons brought with them not just accolades, but authenticity - a blend of rigorous academic insight and real-world empathy, which made the session not only relevant, but profoundly relatable. From YouTube videos that clarified gender identities across generations, to stories drawn from real classrooms and lived experiences, the workshop gently unravelled assumptions. Key concepts like gender identity, gender roles, and equality in academic progress were not just discussed, but lived, through interaction, poetry, and spontaneous dialogue. The facilitators didn't shy away from discomfort. They encouraged it because discomfort, they reminded us, is often the birthplace of deeper understanding. And yet, the atmosphere was anything but heavy. With humour, humility, and an instinct for inclusivity, Anand and Ruppy created a space that felt less like training, and more like truth-telling. The school expresses gratitude to principal Monica Chawla, whose leadership quietly champions such bold conversations. With a firm belief in mental wellness and human dignity, Chawla ensures that St Joseph's remains not just a place of education, but of evolution....
