Kolkata Sanved is a women-led pioneer in the field of dance movement therapy (DMT) for healing,empowerment & psycho-social rehabilitation of marginalised populations.We use DMT as a tool for promoting holistic well-being & enhancement of quality of life. Founded in 2004 by Ashoka Fellow Dr. Sohini Chakraborty, a sociologist and dance activist, Kolkata Sanved has expanded the notions of dance and t

raditional rehabilitation programs. Through our groundbreaking program, survivors of trafficking and violence release trauma, develop confidence and identify their own potentials as human beings rather than as victims. At its core, the program allows survivors to develop specific life-skills important for their reintegration through a non-threatening and culturally familiar medium.

Behind every child who feels safe, supported, and cared for is often a caregiver carrying the emotional weight of that responsibility.
Through Project: Restoring Smiles Through Dance in Maharashtra, 19 caregivers from Child Care Institutions in Dongri completed a six-session Dance Movement Therapy programme that offered space for self-care, emotional wellbeing, reflection, and connection. These sessions recognised an essential truth: those who care for others also need opportunities to rest, heal, and be supported.
As we mark the successful completion of the third year of this journey, we celebrate every caregiver who showed up with openness, courage, and compassion. Caring for caregivers is not an addition to our work—it is at the heart of sustainable care.

When communities come together to listen, young people find the confidence to speak.

Our community sharing meeting at Gajdharpara High School in Murshidabad created space for meaningful conversations around adolescent mental health, self-awareness, rights, and wellbeing. Through dialogue, movement, and creative expression, students were encouraged to share their experiences, strengthen their voices, and connect with one another.

We are grateful to Gajdharpara High School, Anjali Mental Health Rights Organization, Suprava Panchashila Mahila Uddoyg Samiti, and all our partner organisations for joining us in building safer, more supportive communities for young people.

Every child deserves a space where they feel safe to express, connect, and grow.

Healing has the power to create leaders.
The young people beginning their Training of Trainers journey are taking the next step—from experiencing Dance Movement Therapy to learning how to facilitate spaces for wellbeing within their own communities.
By investing in youth leadership, we are strengthening community-based mental health support that is rooted in creativity, care, and collective responsibility.

Healing becomes even more powerful when it is shared.

Our community sharing meeting at Zurranti Tea Garden celebrated the journeys of young people whose experiences with Dance Movement Therapy have grown into stories of leadership and hope. By sharing their voices with community members, local institutions, and partner organisations, they reminded us that meaningful change begins from within communities themselves.

When young people lead with courage and authenticity, communities listen—and new possibilities emerge.

Every journey of healing deserves to be acknowledged.

The certificate ceremony in Murshidabad marked the completion of six months of Dance Movement Therapy, where participants engaged with movement, creativity, and collective care as pathways towards healing and resilience.

Healing is rarely a single moment—it is a journey shaped by trust, consistency, and community.
Over the past six months, 24 residents at the All Bengal Women's Union participated in Kolkata Sanved's Dance Movement Therapy Trauma Healing and Recovery Programme. Their certificate ceremony marked not only the completion of a programme, but the courage to show up, move, connect, and grow together.
We celebrate every participant and wish them continued strength on their journey ahead.

Some partnerships begin with recognition and grow into relationships that stand the test of time.

It was a privilege to join the Ladies Study Group as they celebrated 60 years of service, compassion, and community impact. As recipients of the LSG Award in 2019, we carry their trust and encouragement with deep gratitude.

Congratulations to the Autism Society West Bengal on this well-deserved recognition. We are honoured to celebrate alongside organisations committed to building a more inclusive and compassionate society.

Here's to the power of partnerships, shared purpose, and communities that continue to uplift one another.

The first step of any journey is often the most meaningful.

Our inaugural Senior Citizen Wellness Matters workshop was filled with movement, smiles, conversations, and moments of genuine connection. It reminded us that creative expression has the power to bring people together at every age.

As this initiative grows, we hope to continue creating welcoming spaces where older adults can experience wellbeing through movement, community, and shared joy.

Here's to ageing with dignity, purpose, and togetherness.

Ageing is a journey that deserves care, connection, and joy.

With Senior Citizen Wellness Matters, Kolkata Sanved and the Inner Wheel Club of Central Calcutta are creating spaces where older adults can experience movement, creativity, companionship, and emotional wellbeing in community.

This initiative reflects our shared belief that mental health and wellbeing matter at every stage of life, and that meaningful human connection remains one of our greatest sources of strength.

We look forward to walking this journey together.
