Millennium Fellowship Project: Sanctuary
Our project titled ‘Sanctuary’ aims at creating a forum and a safe space amongst the students of our college. The project is based on SDG 10, ‘Reduced Inequalities’ and the 7th UNAI principle, ‘Intercultural dialogue’. Its main objective is to create a space where student can express their concerns about the impact of societal issues on them. The project aims to be a multi-purpose forum and a safe space for women in our college community to express themselves without the fear of judgement. Sanctuary will also help share information and encourage healthy discussions on various intersectional themes such as colourism in India, menstruation taboos and more, culminating in the path to gender equality. Additionally, Sanctuary will augment the discussion forum with social media exploring experiences, as well as devising additional targets to accomplish the goal of gender equality. While Sanctuary has synthesized as a conversation starter, it aims to evolve into a sound solution of appreciable value.
