Our Direct Impact in Workshops
We take an active, hands-on role in every workshop, ensuring a valuable and impactful learning experience for all participants.
Workshop Design & Curriculum
YASHODA AI’s workshops tailor AI learning to women’s diverse roles-students, policewomen, homemakers, and professionals. With simple core concepts, ethical framing, and multilingual access, the curriculum makes AI practical, responsible, and relevant for all.
Expert Facilitation
YASHODA AI workshops focus on hands-on demos-spotting deepfakes, verifying links, or using AI for study and business. Rooted in daily life-banking, teaching, community-this approach builds confidence, showing AI as practical, visible, and responsible.
Live Demonstrations
YASHODA AI workshops are led by AI, cybersecurity, legal practitioners, educators, and social scientists experts. Sessions are jargon-free, using stories and examples. With diverse women facilitators as role models, workshops stay credible, ethical, and connected to real life.
Feedback & Iteration
YASHODA AI is a living program that evolves with feedback and new AI risks. Beyond workshops, the AI Sakhi network-via WhatsApp, helplines, and digital platforms-offers peer support, safety tips, and resources, making learning a sustained, community-driven journey
Be Part of the Movement
Future Shift Labs sees YASHODA AI as more than literacy-it integrates AI into daily life responsibly. Women build skills to spot risks, use AI for learning and livelihood, and engage with ethics and safety.
The goal: clarity, confidence, and readiness in navigating AI.
