Empowering Kishori Leaders: To Fight Gender-Based Violence and Build Confidence! On August 10-11, 2024, 25 Kishori leaders from the Azad Kishori Program in Jaipur empowered themselves with self-defence skills in an intensive workshop led by experienced facilitators Manbhar Devi and Shashi at SPRI, Jaipur. The kishoris got hands-on practice in defense techniques, setting personal boundaries, and real-life scenario simulations. The training instilled confidence in the leaders to fight gender-based violence and reinforced their belief in collective strength. Together, we are forging a safer, more just world for everyone!
