Todo Bandishen (break free from the shackles) was a collective campaign against early and forced marriage by young women participants from Level 2 of FAT’s Young Women’s Leadership Program (YWLP). This campaign led by the participants started in 2015. In the photo stories these young women from underserved low-income urban communities from Delhi and Bihar shared stories of their communities. These stories were used to spread awareness about the need to stop early and forced marriage in their communities.

By choosing topics close to their heart, using their keen observation and a sensitive understanding of the world around them, these young women uncovered a range of inequalities present in our society with these photostories. The stories show how very deeply the basic problems of sanitation, education, health, livelihood, discrimination, violence and choice still plague our society.
