Our Activities

Ab Aur Nahi “Hinsa” (AAN)

AAN is an initiative of Sahyogi which addresses the issue of Gender based Violence with a strong focus on
Domestic Violence in villages and slums in Bihar. The programme is aimed at contributing towards reduced
prevalence of violence against women/girls. Under the AAN initiative Sahyogi educates women, adolescent
and youth to identify GBV/DV and respond; creates a cadre base in community on GBV/DV, provide counseling
and legal aid support to the survivor and link them with existing govt. services for justice.
School Intervention

Sahyogi is working with students and teachers in schools and colleges on EVAW (End Violence against
Women). The main objective is to transform adolescent and youth as agents of change, who will respond to
violence against women and girls within their family and society. The focus of the programme is to capacitate
adolescents and youth in recognizing VAW, responding to them and to link them with service delivery points
like Mahila Thana, Police Station, Women Helpline, Sahyogi and other agencies working on the issue. This
programme also helps in providing a platform for dialogue with development workers and women rights
activists in changing the stereotypes.

School Chalo Abhiyan

Sahyogi runs a massive campaign on Right to Education and to get out of school children enrolled focused on
children from Dalit, Backward and Minority community. We get the local stakeholders like PRI representatives,
teachers, AWW, parent and community leaders involved in the process. Our main objective is to work towards
reinforcing the belief that education will lead to a better life.

Sanitation and Menstrual Hygiene

Sahyogi undertakes regular session on WASH with the community and children. The objective of these sessions
is to bring awareness on WASH issues and thus reinforcing healthy behaviours. We organize cleanliness drive
in community. Since Sahyogi works primarily with women so we facilitate menstrual hygiene session with
women and adolescents. We also promote the use of sanitary pad though we do not promote any specific
brand.

Save Water Campaign

Sahyogi has taken an initiative to bring awareness within the community to save water and also to optimize its
best use through its “Jal Suraksha” programme. Through wall painting, folk shows and nukkad meeting we
spread the message of saving water and its reuse. This initiative is focused on behavioural change among
people to conserve water.

Capacity Building Cell

Sahyogi has a group of trainers and have been developing a capacity building cell. The members of the capacity
building cell have wide range of experience in the development sector on conducting training programme for
different agencies. It provides trainer/complete training package to different agencies on request for capacity
building to their staffs and community members.
