Our Beginnings
The initiatives that shaped SWATI’s early work on women’s rights, collective action and gender justice.
A women-led community justice forum addressing domestic violence and exploitation through counselling, mediation and support to access legal aid, protection and other services.
Supporting women to claim land and livelihood rights, secure ownership and inheritance, and gain recognition as farmers.
Working with communities and local institutions to challenge gender-based violence, address unequal power relations and prevent violence against women.
Working with young women and men, families and communities to challenge gender norms and advance gender equality, adolescent health and citizenship rights.
A women’s savings and credit initiative that builds financial agency, collective strength and women’s control over resources.
Helping women and marginalised communities navigate government systems and access public services, social entitlements and land and property rights.
