ARISE
Khaitan & Co has a dedicated D&I initiative titled ARISE for both lawyers and shared services across locations. ARISE’s goal is to foster a positive and supportive environment in which all can flourish regardless of gender, age, sexual orientation, disabilities, religion, culture or any other dimension of diversity.
Our efforts under ARISE are both internal (awareness building) as well as external (creating opportunities for diverse firm members). Driven by our goal, we have activities aligned to different diversity streams: ensure gender balance across the Firm; build a supportive ecosystem irrespective of sexual orientation or identity; support colleagues affected by disability; and create right environment for mental wellbeing that is part of our broader approach to wellbeing at the firm.
