Gender-based violence against women is, currently, a serious public health and human rights issue in India. Traditional efforts to tackle gender-based violence against women have concentrated on empowering women to assert themselves. This approach insulates men from the process of transformation and furthers the gender divide.
Men Against Violence and Abuse - MAVA has pioneered efforts in India to engage Boys and Men to address issues of gender inequality and discrimination and help stop prevent gender-based violence against women.

As External Member of the Internal Committee of our College, your inputs received during the academic year while redressing complaints of sexual harassment have been valuable and insightful.

MAVA team seems very experienced and has the ability to bring the students out. The three hours went by very smoothly with the three different sections covering the discussion on natural/social constructs, structures of patriarchy and the film.
