Claim the Dais

Take the stage.
Officially.

We built the Dais because qualified women kept being left off panels. Not because they didn't exist, but because nobody had built the infrastructure to find them.

If you're a practitioner, researcher, executive, or public thinker with something to say, apply to join. We review every application personally. Not everyone gets in. Those who do are the women organisers across India will come looking for.

Until then, you can find more of us here.
Love,
Decoding Draupadi
