Intellion by Tata Realty inspires inclusion with its latest Women’s Day campaign: Deserved - Reserved
Mumbai, Maharashtra: As a part of its commitment to promote diversity and inclusion, this Women’s Day Tata Realty & Infrastructure Ltd., a leading provider of office parks, unveiled a thought-provoking campaign titled ‘Deserved – Reserved’. This visually impactful campaign aims to ignite important conversations about gender equality by reimaging the classic game of chess, conventionally perceived to be male-dominated.
The campaign was live on 8th March, 2024 where the life sized installations were put up across Intellion office parks encouraging India-wide participation from employees, occupiers, and other stakeholders. Through this proactive move, Intellion offices by Tata Realty hopes to dismantle conventional stereotypes surrounding women in the workplace and endeavours to demonstrate that women deserve equal recognition and standing alongside men in every professional achievement and setting.
The campaign disrupts traditional perceptions of Chess by installing larger-than-life Chess sets at Intellion Office Parks engaging ~70,000 number of tenants across its four campuses. Notably, half of the pieces, painted in pink, demonstrate an equal representation of women in the army, all while adhering to the game's original rules. This underscores the notion that positions of power should be Deserved and not Reserved.
Furthermore, taking this campaign beyond Intellion Office premises, customized Chess Sets will be shared with important stakeholders of various industries to spark meaningful conversation across sectors. The campaign has expanded across various platforms, featuring compelling illustrations that highlight the stark under-representation of women.
"To foster equality, it's imperative to safeguard women's rights and promote #InspireInclusion, prompting us to rethink established systems, as exemplified by these Chess sets. To build a fair world, we must secure women’s rights and #InspireInclusion, reimagining existing systems. Every chess game played on this unique board serves as a catalyst for meaningful dialogues, ultimately forging a more inclusive world." says Mr. Sanjay Dutt, MD & CEO at TATA Realty & Infrastructure Ltd.
Each year, Cricket South Africa organizes Pink day ODI to increase awareness about breast cancer. Similarly, Intellion by Tata Realty painted the chess set pink by ensuring there are an equal number of men and women, celebrating the power of inclusion.
