WELCOME TO MEANA WOMEN’S FORUM

The Women’s Forum is an integral part of MEANA, contributing to the organization’s success. Our mission is to bring together women from different platforms and nurture their individuality. Our team comprises women engineers, professionals, and those associated with MEANA families.

We uphold three core values:
🔹 Empowerment
🔹 Entrepreneurship
🔹 Empathy

🌟 EMPOWERMENT

“In the future, there will be no female leaders. There will just be leaders.”
— Sheryl Sandberg, COO, Meta

Women remain underrepresented in leadership roles, whether in the C-suite, corporate boards, academia, creative arts, science, or technology. Our goal is to break stereotypes, build confidence, and reshape the future of women leaders.

💡 Here, women help women!

🚀 ENTREPRENEURSHIP

Many women entrepreneurs in our community do not receive the recognition they deserve. This platform will showcase and celebrate their resilience, innovation, and leadership, inspiring future engineers and professionals.

💡 Let’s uplift and support the incredible women entrepreneurs among us!

💖 EMPATHY

What is success if not shared? Inclusion and support are key to addressing the challenges women face today. We will collaborate with non-profit organizations and engage in volunteering efforts to create meaningful impact.

🌍 Apna Ghar is one such organization that provides critical, comprehensive, culturally competent services and advocates to end gender violence.
