Progress is being made, but our work is far from over.

While we can celebrate a significant social milestone, the halving of teenage pregnancies in India over the last decade, the reality of maternal healthcare still demands urgent attention.

Our maternal mortality rate (MMR) remains stubbornly high at 167 per 100,000 live births, remaining far above developed-country averages. This statistic represents a critical gap in comprehensive maternal care, particularly highlighting shortcomings in:

1. Access to skilled birth attendants

2. Emergency obstetric care in rural areas

3. Overall healthcare quality and infrastructure

Every mother deserves a safe delivery and comprehensive care. To ensure safe motherhood for all women, we must push for concerted national efforts to improve healthcare infrastructure, enhance health worker training, and provide universal, high-quality reproductive health services.

A girl too far from school to walk. A woman with nowhere to go after dark. A child arriving alone at a railway station. A domestic worker's daughter with no classroom to call her own.

Tharuni didn't look at these as separate problems. It looked at each one and asked the same question: what does she need, and how do we build it?

A bicycle programme. A helpline. A railway rescue desk. A Sunday school. Eight rural resource centres training girls in computers, English, and martial arts. The answer was never the same twice, but the commitment behind it always was.
Swipe to see every way Tharuni shows up.

The numbers are alarming, but the silence is deafening.

Every year in India, 18.4% of women face physical or sexual violence. Yet, this staggering statistic only reveals a fraction of the truth. Because of severe under-reporting, these official figures are merely the tip of the iceberg.

Behind these numbers are millions of untold stories hidden by:

1. Fear of social stigma and victim-blaming.

2. Cultural norms that pressure women to stay silent to "protect" family honor.

3. Systemic barriers and a lack of faith in the legal system.

Addressing the violence itself is crucial, but we must also fight the hidden reality of under-reporting. It is on all of us as a society to create safe spaces, foster genuine empathy, and strengthen legal support systems so that survivors feel empowered to step forward.

No woman should have to suffer in silence. Let's stand together to break the cycle.

🌍 Tharuni at the Global Stage: From India to the World

We are proud to share that Tharuni represented India at the 4th Global Summit for Mental Health Advocates & 2nd Youth Mental Health Summit, held in Singapore (27-29 June 2026).

Our Director, Dr. Mamatha Achanta, represented India as a Global Alliance for Mental Health Advocates Advisory Panel Member and was also recognized as a member of the International Advisory Committee, alongside distinguished mental health leaders from across the world.

At Breakout Session 4.5, Dr. Mamatha Achanta and Mrs. Manjula Mummula, Coordinator, Tharuni, presented:

"From Despair to Dignity: Building Resilience Among Young Women Through De-Addiction Centres."

The presentation highlighted Tharuni's Swalambana De-Addiction Centre, showcasing a trauma-informed, survivor-centred model that empowers adolescent girls and young women to rebuild their lives with dignity, resilience, and hope.

International Advisory Committee

We are honoured to stand alongside an exceptional panel of global leaders:

• Prof. George Christodoulou - Greece
• Ms. Deborah Wan - Hong Kong SAR
• Miss Lily Chan - Hong Kong SAR
• Dr. Mamatha Raghuveer Achanta - India

• Dr. Prianto Djamilko - Indonesia
• Mr. Roi Shternin-Martini - Israel
• Dr. Tsuyoshi Akiyama - Japan
• Dr. Takahiro A. Kato - Japan

This summit reinforced the power of international collaboration in advancing mental health advocacy, protecting vulnerable communities, and creating sustainable solutions for the next generation.

Together, we continue working towards a future where every girl lives with dignity, safety, opportunity, and hope.

We thank the organizers, fellow delegates, partners, and advocates for making this global exchange of knowledge and compassion possible.

This isn't just a staggering statistic from the NCRB, it represents thousands of families left devastated and searching for answers.

Driven by human trafficking, kidnapping, and deep-seated gender disparities, this crisis demands our immediate attention. We cannot afford to look the other way.

It is time to break the silence, raise awareness, and demand safer environments for every girl child. Share this to spread the word.

Showing up to a Balika Sangha meeting sounds simple. For most of these girls, it wasn't.

Suspicious mothers monitoring every word. Family members blocking the door. Household chores that left no time. Village elders who drove Tharuni's own coordinators away. And then the girls stepped in to protect them.

This is what participation actually looked like. Not enthusiasm; courage.
Tharuni has been showing up to these villages through every one of these obstacles, rebuilding groups that lost momentum, standing beside girls who had no one else. That kind of persistence needs support to continue.

Swipe to see what stood between these girls and the one space built for them.

Behind every staggering statistic is a young girl whose dreams and potential were put on hold. Today, 640 million women and girls live with the reality of having been married before turning 18.

While the global prevalence is slowly declining, it’s not happening fast enough. 12 million girls are still married every single year. If we don't accelerate our efforts, we are looking at a future with 700 million child brides by 2050.

We cannot afford to slow down. Join us in the fight to protect girls' futures. Let girls be girls.

This is a powerful story of resilience and healing. A 16-year-old survivor, facing unimaginable challenges and developmental hurdles, discovered her true potential not through traditional academics, but through the beautiful and intricate art of bangle-making.

By focusing on her strengths and natural eye for design, she transformed her pain into purpose—becoming a skilled artisan, a confident entrepreneur, and a patient teacher to other young girls in her community.

Her journey leaves us with a beautiful reminder: True potential is unlocked when we focus on our strengths, rather than our limitations.
