Positive representation educates audiences and models supportive behaviours. Here are some positive examples:
Colleagues should offer support without prying, respect confidentiality, and share factual testimony if they witnessed events. They must never victim-blame.
The IC Presiding Officer must actively steer inquiries, ensure procedural fairness, manage dynamics & uphold PoSH's spirit - not merely rubber-stamp decisions.
Data challenges prejudices but must be paired with empathy to drive meaningful change.
Rigid categories fail human diversity; embracing fluidity fosters true inclusion, the end of the road?
Cultural nuance can cloud harassment issues. Aligned global policies, local guidance and multilingual training ensure understanding and protection.
Silence around domestic violence hurts workplaces too. Recognise signs, offer safe support systems & flexible policies to help survivors heal & retain employment.
India's Domestic Violence Act protects both parties in live-in relationships. Understanding this legal recognition is crucial for safety & seeking rightful recourse.
Cinema often sensationalises domestic violence. Responsible storytelling should highlight realities, survivor strength & pathways to support, not perpetuate myths.
Gaslighting is psychological abuse making victims doubt their reality. Recognise manipulation tactics, trust your instincts & seek support to break free from this.
Women have the right to protection orders, residence, monetary relief & legal aid under India's Domestic Violence Act. Knowing these enables survivors to be safe.
Consent & boundaries are key. Domestic violence shatters both. Rebuilding starts with respecting autonomy & recognising coercive control as a violation of rights.
