WERP-India is a students' initiatives for women empowerment, a project of Forum of Financial Initiatives (FFI) India. More than 50% of the world population is women. Their contributions to wealth and asset creation are substantial and can be inferred as same as that of men, though there is no precise estimate of such macro variables on the basis of gender. Despite this, in almost all societies, there is gender bias against women. The gender biases against women start from the conception in the womb till lifetime. The war against women is largely influenced by policies and issues of justice as well as the social construct that influence the mindset of the public against women. However, WERP-India has taken up a developmental project on multi-dimensional project approach to women empowerment in India through social research techniques. The social research project is expected to facilitate the reconstruction of the Indian society towards a favorable mindset and appreciation for women.
