The Quint won the coveted Champion Publisher of the Year 2022′ award at the WAN-IFRA South Asian Digital Media Awards, along with a Gold for ‘Best News Website’ on 16 March 2023 – which was also The Quints eighth anniversary. The Quint received three golds, two silvers, one bronze, and the Champion Publisher of the Year 2022 award Additionally, five of The Quint’s stories received awards across different categories: 1. Category: Best special project for COVID-19 / Pandemic Reporting Award: GOLD Winner: Ladki Hoon… Padhna Chahti Hoon – Indias Girls Out Of School After a countrywide lockdown was implemented in March 2020 due to COVID-19, we started seeing its fallouts. What was feared back then was how the lockdown would impact adolescent girls, especially their education. Those fears turned out to be true. In the video series, Ladki Hoon… Padhna Chahti Hoon – Indias Girls Out of School, we brought stories of girls from across the country who were forced to discontinue education. Theirs was not a fight against their families, it was against poverty and the pandemic to continue their education. 2. Category: Best Data Visualization Award: GOLD Winner: Islamophobia 365: Lynchings and Beyond Since the lynching of Mohammad Akhlaq in Dadri in September 2015, Uttar Pradesh has witnessed a wide range of attacks on Muslims, ranging from hate crimes and hate speeches to the targeting of food habits and religious practices. ‘Islamophobia 365: Lynchings and Beyond’ is a multimedia interactive that documents instances of anti-Muslim hate in Uttar Pradesh – providing details of as many as 418 such instances since the lynching of Mohammad Akhlaq. 3. Category: Best Data Visualization Award: SILVER Winner: Seeds of Protest: How Three Farm Laws Sparked a Massive Movement Despite COVID-19, extreme weather conditions, and violence, the farmers from Punjab, Haryana, and Rajasthan did not leave the protest sites that had come up in Delhi-NCR in 2020 and 2021. Thousands of men, women, and children protested against the three controversial farm laws. It all started in November 2020, and a year later, the laws were revoked. The sites -Singhu, Tikri, and Ghazipur – are immortalised forever as places where this legendary year-long protest took place. This interactive graphic novel captures the resilience of the farmers, their struggles, and the joys and sorrows that enveloped the protest sites. 4. Category: Best Use of Video Award: SILVER Winner: Rising Waters and Sinking City: Mumbai Against the Tides Mumbai is plagued by a host of environmental issues but one of the more urgent threats is that of rising global mean sea temperatures and sea levels. This project documents how a fisherman, an entrepreneur, and a marketing professional, are all vulnerable to climate change in different capacities. 5. Category: Best Native Advertising / Sponsored Content Campaign Award: BRONZE Winner: Ask Him Today – Does He See You As An Equal The Quint X Ariel The project was launched by The Quint in collaboration with Ariel as a part of the brand’s #SeeEqual campaign. The idea was to capture the real-time reactions of people as they watched Ariel’s film See Equal To #ShareTheLoad which spoke about gender inequalities in the household. The aim of the campaign was to spark a conversation around gender equality, inspire men to share responsibilities at home, and reinforce through content that free time for a woman is equally important.

Rainmaker, Indias leading learning, content, and technology company in the area of Culture & Compliance, recently announced an upcoming symposium aimed at transforming organizations perception of PoSH and its role in creating diverse, equitable, and inclusive workplaces. Titled From Intent to Impact: How Inclusive Organizations Ace PoSH, the symposium will bring together experts in Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI) and Prevention of Sexual Harassment (PoSH) to discuss how truly inclusive organizations recognize the power of implementing the purpose and process of the PoSH Law to create safe, progressive, and inclusive cultures.

Attendees will leave the symposium as Rainmaker Certified Inclusion & PoSH Practitioners, a highly requested addition to Rainmakers existing offerings of e-learning and facilitator-led training modules.

 

 

Antony Alex, Founder & CEO of Rainmaker, has long believed that creating inclusive workplaces is a crucial step towards eradicating the problem of sexual harassment in the workplace. With years of involvement in the PoSH and DEI fields, the connection between the two has always been evident to the Rainmaker team. “We have decided to put our deep expertise in PoSH and DEI to good use with the launch of this symposium under our events banner, All Inclusive,” says Alex.

 

“We are confident that this symposium will equip our participants with the necessary tools to create safer and more inclusive workplaces. Whether you are a CHRO, PoSH or DEI practitioner, a member of an Internal Committee, or an individual looking to upskill yourself, this symposium is ideal for you. In addition to certification, our carefully selected experts will provide you with the tools and skills to implement in the workplace or on your Internal Committee.”

 

Over the last seven years, Rainmaker has collaborated with more than 700 organizations and sensitized over three million employees, solidifying its position as a preferred partner for organizational learning programs on PoSH, DEI, Anti-bribery Anti-corruption, Code of Conduct, and other compliance and culture-related areas. As a natural progression, Rainmaker has now expanded its program to include individuals in the fields of Human Resources, DEI, and Compliance & Legal professionals, enabling them to directly engage with its expert learning programs through Rainmaker All Inclusive – its events vertical.

 

The symposium is scheduled for the 31st of March and the 1st of April 2023 in Mumbai.
