What We Do:
- Educate students about their right to safety and bodily autonomy
- Foster confidence to say “No”, recognize unsafe touch, and assert boundaries.
- Address shame and stigma around their bodies with empathy and dignity
- Introduce child-friendly explanations of the POCSO Act and redressal mechanisms.
- Encourage open conversations on gender, power, and respect in age-appropriate ways
How We Do It:
- Conduct engaging classroom sessions
- Use stories, activities, and discussions to reinforce that the responsibility of safety lies with adults.
- Work closely with teachers and school staff to create an ecosystem of safety and accountability
