A powerful first-ever drum circle with our women
For many, it was their first time holding and playing a drum and they embraced it with pure energy, joy, and freedom.
It was truly moving to see each woman reconnect with her inner child fearless, playful, and alive. The rhythm they created reflected strength, sisterhood, and the spirit of togetherness.
Some women shared that they forgot their worries in the moment. Others spoke about feeling the vibration of music and rhythm in their bodies. Some simply expressed the joy of playing drums for the first time. A few reflected that while they had seen their grandparents and men play drums before, experiencing it themselves was something entirely different and empowering.
Grateful for this beautiful and healing experience
Special thanks to and facilitator .canvasofhealing for guiding this journey.

Aawaaz-e-Niswaan organised a two-day para legal awareness training for women from different communities, including women who have faced domestic violence. The aim was to help them understand their basic rights and the laws that are there to protect them.

The sessions were taken by Shivani, Pranali and Salman from They spoke in simple language about important topics like the Domestic Violence Act, protection from sexual harassment, laws for children, personal laws of different religions, and how the police and courts work. The women also learned about new types of violence happening through mobile phones and the internet, such as online harassment, blackmail, cyberbullying, fake profiles, deepfake videos and other digital abuse.

The training helped the women know where to go for help, how to approach the police, and how to connect with support services. They learned what steps they can take to keep themselves and their children safe. This awareness made them feel more confident to speak out, ask for help and stand up for their rights.

Through such programmes, Aawaaz-e-Niswaan is working to build strong, aware and fearless women in the community.

During the 16 Days of Activism, 115 young women and adolescent girls came together for a dynamic consultation on justice, rights, and mobility led by and

Girls from 14 community groups spoke openly about what holds them back: family pressures, everyday gender bias, unsafe transport, hostile public spaces, and the growing dangers of the digital world. But they didn’t stop at naming the problems they collectively shaped recommendations that will travel all the way to the UN Commission on the Status of Women (CSW) 2026. These young leaders are rewriting the narrative.

They’re demanding safety, equality, and freedom and they’re ensuring their voices echo far beyond their communities.
We are proud to stand with them in the fight to end gender-based violence.
