shOObh 2017

This surely is the year for Indian  # women  to empower themselves. An apt theme. I hope many good  # paintings  will happen.  # shOObh  theme of the year #2017 is  स्त्री |  Women -- Padmashree Anjolie Ela Menon – Head of Jury,  shOObh Arts Competition Shoobh Group Website: www.shoobharts.com

I am delighted that  Shoobh Group  has devoted its activities to the theme स्त्री |  Women  for the year 2017-18. Issues around women, their safety, and equal opportunity have engaged societies for a very long time. The issue caught the attention of the world community resulting in a commitment to achieve gender  #equality  as Goal 5 of the Sustainable Development Goals  #SDG  announced by the United Nations  #UN  in 2015. I hope shOObh's initiatives will further encourage all of us to achieve gender equality and empower all  #women and  #girls Ashok Pandey Chairman, NPSC and  Principal, Ahlcon International School, Delhi
