The caste system has oppressed millions for centuries but a common element among all castes is the oppression of women. Cynthia uses the term Brahmanical Patriarchy to describe the elite position held by upper caste men and its negative impact on society. Inspired by Ambedkar Cynthia highlights how political democracy doesn’t translate to social democracy in India. A charismatic speaker, Cynthia’s journey and views are a must listen for any Indian.

Cynthia works in policy advocacy for the rights of women and children from vulnerable sections of Indian society. Cynthia works with a Gender perspective. She was a State Programme Director, Mahila Samakhya Karnataka, a government project for the empowerment of women 2012-2014, with a budget of INR 300 million and 400 staff. She was invited on the Committee set up by the Government of Karnataka to amend the Panchayat Raj Act in 2014-2015, which passed into Law in late 2015.
