" "My work is driven by a deep belief that law can act as an important and powerful weapon to shape the society and help to achieve social equality and justice. Millennium Fellowship offers me a platform to amplify my efforts and collaborate with like minded individuals to produce an inclusive impact." "
Millennium Fellowship Project: DAYAN
This project aims to combat the issue of witch hunting which is quite prevalent around the nation, especially in tribal states like Jharkhand. Witch hunting is gender biased practice which portrays women as witches and is detrimental to them. This project focuses on increasing awareness about the social evil of witch hunting. The project will also perform surveys, field visits which will help the victims of witch hunting as well as teach the people about the negative consequences this act may have.
