For queries, write to: learningatimpri@gmail.com About The Fellowship The Law and Public Policy Youth Fellowship (LPPYF) – an initiative by the IMPRI Impact and Policy Research Institute, New Delhi – returns for its fifth cohort in Summer 2025 with a powerful and timely theme: The Legal and Governance Landscape of Women’s Empowerment in India. This online, immersive fellowship offers young changemakers, students, and early-career professionals a unique opportunity to critically engage with the intersections of law, policy, and gender justice in the Indian context. As questions around women’s rights, legal protections, and institutional accountability gain renewed urgency, this cohort aims to unpack how legal frameworks and governance structures can both enable and hinder women’s empowerment. From constitutional guarantees and landmark legislations to grassroots movements and evolving policy reforms, participants will explore the layered dynamics that shape gender justice in India today. Through expert-led sessions, interactive learning, and hands-on activities, the fellowship seeks to build a cohort of informed and empathetic youth ready to advocate for and contribute to a more inclusive and equitable society.
