AIWEFA found a person, who had made an outstanding contribution to remove drudgery for women, for its  one time ” Lifetime Achievement AIWEFA Platinum Jubilee Award” in Mr. Bindeshwar Pathak, Founder Sulabh International Social Service Organisation. Mr. Pathak is an icon of the sanitation movement not only in India but also in the entire world; he has made a difference in the lives of millions of people. He is a crusader for restoration of human rights and dignity to abject scavengers. The Sulabh Sanitation Movement is translating the dreams of Mahatma Gandhi and Dr. B.R. Ambedkar by its painstaking efforts. It has apparently changed the thought and behaviour of the people towards sanitation and the scavenging system. It has played a pioneering role in promoting sanitation and healthcare to ensure good life, especially for the poor and the disadvantaged.
