At ISBR Business School, our unwavering commitment to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) continues to drive meaningful initiatives that empower our students to be catalysts for change. In line with SDG 5 (Gender Equality), SDG 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth), and SDG 10 (Reduced Inequalities), our students recently participated in a transformative Prevention of Sexual Harassment (POSH) training session on September 21, 2024.
This critical training reflects ISBR’s dedication to fostering a harassment-free, equitable, and empowering environment for all. It goes beyond academic learning to ensure that our students, as future HR leaders, are equipped with the tools to create workplaces where respect, dignity, and fairness are paramount.
Led by Expertise: Dr. Elizabeth Chacko’s Insightful Session
The session was expertly led by Dr. Elizabeth Chacko, a prominent advocate for gender equality and inclusivity in the workplace. Known for her engaging and interactive teaching style, Dr. Chacko guided students through real-world case studies and scenarios, making the concepts of harassment prevention and intervention practical and relatable.
Through thought-provoking discussions, the students explored how to recognize, prevent, and address harassment in both professional and social settings. The session emphasized building a workplace culture grounded in respect, trust, and dignity, highlighting the importance of proactive anti-harassment measures.
Shaping Future HR Leaders
For our students at ISBR, this training was more than just a learning session—it was an empowering experience that deepened their understanding of their pivotal role in shaping inclusive workplaces. The students gained valuable insights into the development of policies and practices that promote fairness, equity, and gender sensitivity, equipping them to tackle harassment and discrimination in any form.
As future HR professionals, they are now better prepared to lead with integrity, ensuring that the environments they cultivate will enable every individual to thrive without fear of bias or mistreatment.
Championing Workplace Equality and Safety
Through this initiative, ISBR Business School is not only upholding its commitment to gender equality but is actively working to reduce workplace inequalities. Dr. Chacko’s impactful session reinforced the significance of creating safe, supportive, and harassment-free spaces, where all employees feel valued and empowered to succeed.
A Heartfelt Thanks
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Dr. Elizabeth Chacko for her dedication and for delivering such a powerful, impactful session.
