This session, titled "A Case Study on Evidence-based Policy-making," focuses on analysing India's Female Labor Force Participation Rate (FLFPR) within a global context. The presentation explores key evidence showing declining female workforce participation, highlights the underlying social and economic factors, and examines recent policy measures adopted in India. It draws from notable research, such as the theories by economist Claudia Goldin, and provides an overview of government schemes aimed at increasing female labor engagement, particularly in urban areas. Participants will understand the factors affecting India's Female Labor Force Participation Rate (FLFPR) and explore evidence-based policies addressing these issues. They will also gain insights into government initiatives designed to improve women's workforce engagement, particularly in urban areas, through targeted support and interventions.
