SEWA has stood for dignity, work, and economic empowerment for India’s informal women workers. Now, after 53 years, this legacy is transforming — as women use their mobile phones to tell their own stories and step forward as storytellers, creators, and leaders in India’s clean-energy future.

Our film, Under the Same Sun, debuted at COP30 in Brazil — a powerful showcase of SEWA women who are learning new technical skills and building self-reliance through solar energy.

With Social Saheli: Women in Clean Energy, a partnership between PLUC and SEWA, we are closing a gap — not just in opportunity, but in voice. 

From wiring circuits to scaling solar rooftops, from creating community workshops to telling stories — these women are not just working. They are innovating. They are educating. They are becoming solar technicians, climate educators, entrepreneurs, and mentors.

Under the Same Sun is more than a film. It is insight turned into impact — a movement that invites governments, clean-energy companies, and allies to join us in building a truly inclusive, women-led clean-energy future.
