“Breaking the Conspiracy of Silence”

Dear All

A campaign on “Breaking the Conspiracy of Silence” was initiated in about 100 schools and colleges in Hyderabad, Secunderabad and Rangareddy districts from 25th to 10th December. The major objectives of the campaign are: building solidarity, dissemination of information and sensitization of larger sections of the society, particularly men on the need to break silence and more particularly the conspiracy behind the silence with regard to increasing crime rate of violence on women and girls. The target group for this rally would be adolescent girls and boys with focus on violence and abuse in schools & colleges.

The campaign is a joint effort of different NGOs and network groups working on women and girls’ rights in twin cities of Hyderabad and Secunderabad and facilitated by Samatha Gender Resource Centre, a unit of Andhra Pradesh Mahila Samatha Society.

In this regard, we are happy to invite you cordially to the public meeting on 14th December at Harihara Kala Bhavan where the experiences and demands from the children that came up in this campaign will be presented and discussions will take place on future steps.

Venue: Harihara Kala Bhavan,
