A community led model for prevention of forced labour

Navriti is partnering with Ideal Youth for Revolutionary Changes (IYRC), a youth collective set up by young people in Kapashera, Delhi.

An ‘Informal urban Settlement’ Kapashera is home to thousands of migrants who come to cities in search of a better future. With most working as informal labour in garment manufacturing industries/export companies, Kapas’ (Cotton) is intimately interlinked with the destiny of Kapashera.

Working with Satrang – Forum theatre, Navriti is educating adolescents to highlight solutions to social issues in their area as well as promote rights of informal workers. Attracting a large audience, Satrang has emerged as an empowering space for young people where they discuss issues, deepen their understanding and design street theatre to educate communities. The group has performed plays on diverse subjects such as worker’s rights, domestic violence, sexual harassment, health & hygiene etc.
