What we see online often plays a key role in breaking the mould of stereotypes. TV Shows have pushed forth in this domain, be it through the Chess masterpiece in the Queen’s Gambit or the Urdu dramedy in Chudails.

Marginalised groups are often excluded from data, perpetuating systemic invisibility.
Training staff to support mental health crises saves lives and fosters a caring culture.
Active bystander ABCs: Assess safely, Be present (verbally/interposition), Call for authority support. Small actions prevent escalation.
Colourism in Kashmir reflects global biases, privileging lighter skin over diverse beauty. Is it representative of something deeper lying inside?
Financial literacy empowers marginalised groups to overcome systemic wealth disparities.
“Perfect victim” myths obscure truth. Acknowledging varied survivor experiences ensures fair investigations and justice rooted in empathy and evidence.
India’s diversity is its strength. Embracing DEI means actively confronting caste, gender, regional & religious biases to build truly equitable organisations & society.
Qantas leveraged diversity (gender targets, Indigenous engagement) not just ethically, but strategically, linking it directly to innovation & customer connection success.
From “office housework” to pay gaps & mansplaining, subtle (and not-so-subtle) gender bias persists in Indian workplaces. Recognising it is step one.
Generosity – giving time, resources, opportunity – is a powerful D&I act. It requires conscious choice and sustained will to uplift others & build community.
India’s LGBTQIA+ journey: A complex history of hidden love, legal battles & evolving acceptance. Choosing compassion over archaic law is the path forward.
Can tech drive inclusion? Yes! From bias-free AI hiring tools to accessible platforms & virtual ERGs, technology, used mindfully, can bridge gaps & empower.
Silence around domestic violence hurts workplaces too. Recognise signs, offer safe support systems & flexible policies to help survivors heal & retain employment.
India’s Domestic Violence Act protects both parties in live-in relationships. Understanding this legal recognition is crucial for safety & seeking rightful recourse.
Cinema often sensationalises domestic violence. Responsible storytelling should highlight realities, survivor strength & pathways to support, not perpetuate myths.
Gaslighting is psychological abuse making victims doubt their reality. Recognise manipulation tactics, trust your instincts & seek support to break free from this.
Women have the right to protection orders, residence, monetary relief & legal aid under India’s Domestic Violence Act. Knowing these enables survivors to be safe.
Consent & boundaries are key. Domestic violence shatters both. Rebuilding starts with respecting autonomy & recognising coercive control as a violation of rights.
Growth isn’t always linear. It’s found in reflection, courage, and community. These stories remind us that change begins when we choose to show up fully and honestly.
When people feel safe, they speak. When they’re heard, they grow. Serein builds that space where awareness isn’t just welcomed, it’s woven into the work.
Borders may divide land, but shared languages, memories, and culture connect hearts. Seeing sameness across lines can be the first step toward healing.
Privilege is what you don’t notice because it protects you. Awareness begins when you do. Change follows when you use it, not just for yourself, but for others.
Career dreams begin in childhood, shaped by gender, family, and context. What we choose and what we leave behind reveals how culture steers ambition over time.
Culture is built through stories, trust, and shared purpose. At Serein, 2017 was a year of learning, belonging, and validation, and a reminder that values scale.
