About
‘JWALA’, the M-Dasan Institute of Technology’s women cell was founded in 2017 with the goal of educating and empowering women to reach their full potential and find their place in a competitive society. The primary goals are to increase female students and employee’s self-worth along with confidence to foster decision making skills, to increase knowledge of women’s social issues and concerns regarding health, employment and gender. Our main objective involves maintaining a harmonious atmosphere at the institute, preventing gender discrimination. The cell is also responsible for looking into any complaints filed by students and staff about women grievances at the college. The cell engages with awareness and sensitization of gender issues.

TALK ON MOOD SWINGS IN MENSTURATION AND POSITIVE MENTAL HEALTH
Menstrual cycle is a natural, complex process associated with a female reproductive system. During this phase, women generally feel different, emotionally and physically. And also this being a concern around women, the women cell committee decided to conduct an awareness class for all the students of MDIT.
We decided after calling a meeting for all staff and student members of the cell on 15/10/2024 and allocated respective roles for coordinating the seminar. It was held on 25/10/2024 by a prominent resource person Ms.LASITHA P (Counsellor & Trainer) with an 18 years of experience in counselling motivation class, awareness & activities sessions. The event was very fruitful with a collective of both female and male students. The session also emphasised on positive mental wellbeing. And practices to achieve a positive attitude.
