  • Games and Sports : a Gateway of Women's Empowerment in India
    Games And Sports : A Gateway Of Women’s Empowerment In India Dr. Krishnendu Pradhan ABSTRACT “Sport has huge potential to empower women and girls” - Remarks by Lakshmi Puri; UN Assistant Secretary-General and UN Women Deputy Executive Director. The purpose of this paper attempts to shed light the status of women’s empowerment in India through games and sports and highlights the issues and challenges of women empowerment in the field of physical education and sports. Sport is an integral part of the culture of almost every nation. However, its use to promote gender equity and empower girls and women is often overlooked because sport is not universally perceived as a suitable or desirable pursuit for girls and women. Today the empowerment of women in games and sports has become one of the most important concerns of 21st century. But practically women empowerment in games and sports is still an illusion of reality. It is observe in our day to day life how women become victimized by various social evils. Women empowerment is the vital instrument to expand women’s ability to have resources and to make strategic life choices. Empowerment of women in games and sports is essentially the process of upliftment of economic, social and political status of women, the traditionally underprivileged ones, in the society. Today sports and physical activity as a strategy for the empowerment of girls and women has been gaining recognition worldwide. Women could be empowered through education, sports and physical activities and by giving them equal opportunities in different walks of life. Research on sport, gender, and development indicates that sport can benefit girls and women by: Enhancing health and well-being, fostering self-esteem and empowerment, facilitating social inclusion and integration, challenging gender norms and providing opportunities for leadership and achievement.

    NUMĂRUL 1: IANUARIE, FEBRUARIE, MARTIE 2013 România indiană O revistă de cultură 2013 WWW . HEDWIG 27SILVERHENNA . WORDPRESS . COM Notă Ce v-ar motiva să citiți o astfel de revistă? În primul rând, nu există nici o revistă dedicată Indiei în România. În al doilea rând, este o revistă de cultură; așadar, chiar dacă este dedicată unei anume culturi ori țări, scopul ultim este lărgirea perspectivelor și îmbunătățirea culturii generale. Ne-am propus să cuprindem cât mai multe domenii din civilizația indiană: istorie, cultură, tradiție, muzică, dansuri, călătorii, cinema, religie, educație, recomandări. Ceea ce ne dorim este ca scurtele articole însoțite de imagini din lumea virtuală să aducă India mai aproape. Important este ca publicul să afle lucruri interesante și utile, materialele fiind scrise într-un limbaj ușor accesibil. Nu ne dorim să ne înscriem în categoria revistelor academice, cel puțin deocamdată, motiv pentru care nu vom specifica nici o bibliografie (ea constând în mare parte din cărți în limba engleză, română sau articole din enciclopedii virtuale). Toate imaginile ce vor fi cuprinse în revistă sunt incluse strict cu scop informativ și estetic, nefiind vorba de deținerea drepturilor de autor pentru nici una dintre ele. Ne dorim ca această revistă să apară semestrial și deocamdată va fi lansată doar în mediul virtual. Sperăm că va genera o tradiție în acest sens și, de ce nu, o tradiție tipărită de această dată. Suntem deschiși colaborărilor și sugestiilor publicului cititor. Cu speranța că vă vom aduce puțină bucurie în case, Hedwig Silver, redactor 2 Cuprins Dholavira – vestigiile unei civilizații dispărute 4 Când India a devenit republică 7 S-a născut o altă stea 11 Templul viu – Meenakshi Mandir 13 Tagore – 100 de ani de la Nobel 17 Hinduism – ce și cum 19 100 de ani de cinematografie indiană 23 Recomandări 28 3 După cum bine știm, civilizația Indusului a constituit un subiect de studiu pentru arheologi și istorici încă de timpuriu.
