" Sustained growth fuelled by cooperation and determination is what makes my work encouraging. I have been always been encouraged by the people around who serve their part to the society. I look forward to them, inspired and I want to be one of them in near future. I want our society to be more sexuality inclusive along with climate resilience. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Project BeYou
For Goal 5, I plan to start a project- Project BeYou. The Project shall cover marginalised genders- women and the LGBTQIA+ and work towards their empowerment. Under this I plan to:
We aim to conduct a field research on understanding the marginalisation and stigmatisation. We also take upon the cruical topic of Climate Resilience keeping our target group of the LGBTQIA+ community as the focus and build upon sub-projects under the same by collaboration with LSR's society- Prakriti, working towards environment conservation. While at the same time, we will take action towards breaking the set gender norms by taking up plays and other forms of art that directly break the shackles of stereotypes- by collaboration with LSR's Dramatics Society and LSR Dance Society. Alongwith, we seek out to raise awareness in a target community identified by the team in or around Delhi by conducting various feasible drives. We plan on conducting events/ galas/ shows which normalise the beauty as we want it to be against the set beauty standards by society. Also we seek to collaborate with NGOs like Sashakt Foundation and Sewa Bharat to address the issue of Digital Divide and increase financial literacy.
