Swayam is a feminist organisation committed to advancing women's rights and ending inequality and violence against women and girls. On the one hand we facilitate the empowerment of women survivors of violence and enable them to become self-confident, self-sufficient and self-reliant. On the other, we generate discussion, debate and action in society to challenge social norms, values and systems that deem discrimination and violence against women and girls acceptable.
We provide Direct Support Services to women survivors of violence including counselling, legal aid and advice, police follow up, vocational training, referrals for shelter and employment, a drop-in-centre and numerous group activities to promote creativity and positive mental health.
Our Preventive Strategies programme includes intervening in urban and rural communities to build a violence free and gender just society, public education and awareness building, producing creative resources, disseminating information and sharing expertise, training and capacity building, networking with like-minded organisations/institutions and engaging with state institutions for systemic change.
