Corporate Social Responsibility

Sakshi’s efforts towards creating a gender-just world flourish through collaborative partnerships. Our work with our partners remains centred on fostering an inclusive society that upholds justice and equality. Through shared vision and concerted efforts, Sakshi and our partners strive to make a meaningful impact by empowering individuals, providing lasting solutions and creating safe spaces. 

Sakshi’s programmes focus on Output & Outcomes to measure systemic change. Working with each other’s strengths and fostering a sense of shared responsibility can shift the focus to an outcome rather than an output.

By aligning corporate citizenship efforts with fundraising, Sakshi ensures that CSR programmes under I, III & V of Schedule VII of the Companies Act 2013 are strategic and sustainable. We aim to build a collaborative structure wherein CSR is upheld by building relationships between all the stakeholders.

  • Since its inception, Sakshi has worked towards formulating and enacting government policies to help bring the country closer to a space of equality for all. 

  • We are one of the very few organisations to focus on prevention rather than prohibition and redress and have successfully made 12,000+ homes a safe space.

  • We conduct several workshops in all the states and Union Territories of India. Our team extends its reach to diverse backgrounds and different parts of the country.

  • We follow a rights-based and participatory approach in programme design and implementation, with a collaborative working style. 

  • We use interactive materials like Information, Education, and Communication (IEC) to disseminate our message effectively. We provide an interactive learning environment through systems that improve online training and sensitisation workshops.

  • Sakshi’s creative communication vertical, SBOX, is dedicated to facilitating social and behavioural change through the dynamic flow of ideas and skills between various disciplines. Sakshi links multi-media engagement with face-to-face engagement and community-level activity, as being done through The Rakshin Project.

Testimonials

  • "When I first learnt about The Rakshin Project, the first thought that came to my mind was that, why was it not there when I was growing up as a child? (...)I am really thrilled that this programme exists and seeing and hearing from the Rakshins themselves, gives me immense hope that children of today and the future will be safer and more secure. (...) I want to thank Sakshi for doing such amazing work and empowering young adults across the country to fight this battle."

As a part of CSR initiatives of NLCIL, the company has associated with Sakshi through the Rakshin Project for conducting capacity building workshops for the NSS volunteers in the age group of 18-20 years in the colleges in Tamil Nadu. (...) I congratulate Sakshi for resonating a massive motivational spirit across the country and for having undertaken the mission for refining the real resources of the country and ensuring a knowledgeable generation."

  • "The aim of creating 1 Rakshin in each family, though it may sound ambitious if it happens there is nothing better than this. I think it takes care of the whole issue at a very grass-root (...). I would like to congratulate Sakshi as an organization and each of the volunteers, especially the Programme Coordinators in each of my colleges in Haryana.(...) We would like to interact more with Sakshi on how to make this programme, this project, more broad-based, more widespread."

  • "Many times we have a tendency to put these issues under the carpet, and say that such problems do not exist because we want to present a better face. While this tendency is natural, it is not the right way to solve the problem. To solve the problem first, we have to address the problem, make people aware of the problem, and take the appropriate action in a scientific manner. The approach that has been adopted by Sakshi is a scientific one and a much required one to bring about a change in the mindset."

  • “In the Rakshin Project, I saw a way in which solidarity,empathy can be tapped within the youth and can be moved into transformative action for someone else.”

  • “The details of the fellowship are truly impressive. It is much more intense compared to other NSS training programmes. 2 years across 18 modules and 12 certificates. Expectedly, it aims to develop deeper capacity and more sustainable interest towards the subject.”
