“Pearls don’t lie on the seashore. If you want one, you must dive for it.” – Chinese proverb.
You will quickly get into a rut if you keep doing it the same way you always have. You have to go forward and do new stuff to nourish your imagination. We at Scope of change do not stand still! We actively search for innovative ideas and better ways to advance our steps which led us to support an event organized by WAOW.
On the 4th of April 2021, the World Association of Women Warriors (WAOW) arranged an event, ‘She The Warrior’, on women’s wellbeing and security in collaboration with the Dr. Zakir Husain Foundation in Jamia Urdu College Of Education.
