#IWONTIGNORE Banner.png

"Victims of sexual abuse get blamed and are told to ignore what has happened. Their freedom and respect is further compromised at the hands of their own family and society.

We want to tell everyone to stop ignoring the abuse and instead empower us by making us feel heard and supported"

- said four young change makers from Dharavi when asked what needs to be addressed in their community and what they would like to say through their film.
