Many young menstruators across India experience their first period surrounded with confusion, uncertainty and fear. But when they access to the right information and resources from an early age, they are able to understand their bodies better, challenge menstrual taboos, and form life-long habits around menstrual hygiene that shape a healthier transition into adulthood. At C3, we equip young menstruators with this information and resources so they can form the right habits and have healthier, safer periods. . #NationalGirlChildDay #menstruation #menstrualhealth #periods #menstrualhygiene #makeahappyperiod

This young girl is just so inspiring and i love the confidence that she brings and will be following her keenly in the future. May many more like her emerge and change the narrative for girls!

17-year old Payal Pradhan is busting myths, challenging norms and catalyzing change in her community! She is one of the many young peer educators C3 works with, in providing technical assistance to the Rashtriya Kishor Swasthya Karyakram (RKSK) in Jharkhand, aimed at boosting adolescent health at the community level. C3 identifies, trains, and mentors peer educators to conduct sessions with adolescents in communities, and equip them with increased knowledge on health, wellbeing and gender equity. More power to Payal and the peer educators like her who are shaping a healthier, gender-equitable world! . #youth #youngleaders #peereducators #health #wellbeing #menstrualhealth #voicesfromtheground

When we invest in young people, we invest in a healthier, more confident, and gender-equitable world for all. To commemorate #NationalYouthDay 2024, C3 hosted the Youth Catalyst ConclaveĀ in Ranchi, Jharkhand - celebrating Jharkhand’s journey of adolescent empowerment over the past two decades, highlighting both the gains and areas of further investment around adolescent well-being in the state. The conclave also amplified the inspiring stories of young people from various districts in Jharkhand. Rajya Sabha member @maji_mahua highlighted the importance youth-centered programming, while Dr @ZoyaAliRizvi, Deputy Commissioner (Nutrition), Ministry of Health and Welfare, spoke about the need for adolescent mental health support. For over 18 years, C3 has worked with young people in Jharkhand to bolster their agency, life skills, and wellbeing, while ensuring they stay in school and delay marriage. The conclave showcased the on-ground change our work has catalyzed, and the government initiatives that have facilitated this change. . #youth #youthempowerment #youngpeople #adolescenthealth #mentalhealth #schools #youthleaders #youthday

This Hindu Majority country is a much more inclusive & secure society that does NOT BELIEVE that #MarriageEquality will dismantle its social fabric nor is it against culture/Religion. I hope Those opposing the same in India learn about inclusion from them. bbc.com/news/world-asia-6757…

Violence is not always physical and visible. It limits women's agency, freedom and voice in ways we might not recognise. On the 3rd day of #16daysofactivism, let's come together to build a safer world for all, by challenging these forms of everyday non-physical violence. . #UniteToEndGBV #orangetheworld #gbv #genderbasedviolence #gaslighting #verbalabuse #shaming #discrimination #taunting #cyberflashing #consent #sexualharrassment

Today's #MondayMotivation is 19-year-old Dharitri Beshra from Mayurbhanj, Odisha! Empowered by C3's trainings, not only has she emerged a powerful voice against child marriage in her community, but has been able to re-start her education with the help of a scholarship from the Kalinga Institute of Social Sciences (KISS)! It's stories like hers that inspire us to continue equipping and enabling every girl, every woman, everywhere - so they become life-long catalysts of change. . #girlempowerment #education #childmarriage #storiesofchange #socialimpact #odisha #youthleadership #girlseducation

To break the vicious cycle, be brave enough to stand up and say that you will neither take or give dowry. Let's each start from our own families.
6 Nov 2023
"Bas baraatiyon ke swagat mein kami na rahe!" 35 lakh weddings are set to happen in India between November and December 2023. And during this wedding season, the practice of dowry hides behind 'polite' phrases and 'gifts'. Have you heard any such phrases around you? Tell us in the comments šŸ‘‡ . #weddingseason #shaadiseason #dowry #saynotodowry #patriarchy #weddings #marriage #misogyny #genderbaseddiscrimination
