I.B.Y. Box (I Believe You box) Programme
Child sexual abuse (CSA) leaves a lasting impact on the psyche and self-perception. The trauma may result in denial and dissociation, hindering acceptance and recovery. Venting provides a secure space to express thoughts, emotions, and traumatic experiences. Speaking openly about haunting memories aids healing, rebuilding trust, and achieving mental liberation. Anonymously sharing CSA experiences is encouraged, ensuring safety and facilitating disclosure in cases of difficulty or mistrust. The platform allows individuals to share their stories, with the responsibility of presenting these narratives to the world.

Sensitization Programme
Promoting awareness of child rights and sex education at a personal level is crucial for safeguarding children and unique sensitization programmes have been crafted for various age groups. For instance, the "Safe Touch and Unsafe Touch" programme targets classes 3 to 5, addressing the vulnerability of this age group to abuse. Programs like "Adolescence" and "Consent" cater to classes 6 to 10, tackling issues related to emotional and physical changes during adolescence. "Digital Wellbeing" and "Cyber Safety" programmes address the challenges arising from digital engagement, and a legal workshop on the POCSO Act is designed for adults, specifically teachers and law students. These initiatives aim to bridge gaps in societal awareness and provide essential knowledge for preventing child sexual abuse.
