crime against women

Legal Basta Law Firm is proud to launch its Free Crime Against Women Awareness Program, a dedicated initiative aimed at educating and empowering women across India. This program focuses on enhancing legal literacy, promoting safety, and providing accessible legal support to combat crimes against women.

Our comprehensive program covers a range of topics related to crimes against women, including:

Understanding Gender-Based Violence

Gender-based violence (GBV) encompasses harmful acts directed at individuals based on their gender. In India, GBV manifests in various forms, including domestic violence, sexual harassment, honor killings, and trafficking. Legal Basta’s program aims to educate participants about the root causes of GBV, its societal impact, and the importance of challenging cultural norms that perpetuate such violence. Through interactive sessions, we delve into the dynamics of power and control, emphasizing the need for collective action to combat GBV.

Legal Rights and Protections

Legal Rights and Protections​

Understanding one’s legal rights is crucial in the fight against GBV. Our program provides comprehensive information on:
The Indian Penal Code (IPC): Sections addressing offenses such as rape (Sections 375–376), assault (Section 354), dowry deaths (Section 304B), and cruelty by husband or relatives (Section 498A).

The Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005: Offers civil remedies for victims, including protection orders and residence rights.

The Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act, 2013: Mandates the establishment of Internal Complaints Committees in workplaces.

Participants are guided on how to navigate the legal system, file complaints, and access legal aid services.

Safety Planning

Personal safety is paramount. Our sessions focus on:
Risk Assessment: Identifying potential threats in various environments.

Developing Safety Plans: Creating actionable steps for different scenarios, whether at home, work, or public spaces.

Digital Safety: Understanding online threats and measures to protect personal information.

We also introduce participants to local resources, such as helplines and shelters, ensuring they know where to turn in times of need.

Emotional Support and Counseling

Emotional Support and Counseling

Experiencing GBV can have profound psychological effects. Legal Basta collaborates with trained counselors to provide:

One-on-One Counseling: Offering a safe space to discuss personal experiences.

Support Groups: Facilitating peer-to-peer interactions to share stories and coping strategies.

Therapeutic Workshops: Utilizing art, music, and movement to aid in healing.

Our goal is to ensure that survivors receive holistic support on their journey to recovery.

Empowerment and Self-Defense

Empowerment is a key component of our program. We offer:

Self-Defense Training: Teaching practical techniques to enhance personal safety.

Confidence-Building Workshops: Focusing on communication skills, assertiveness, and self-esteem.

Leadership Development: Encouraging participants to become advocates in their communities.

By equipping women with these tools, we aim to foster resilience and autonomy.

Advocacy and Community Support

Creating lasting change requires collective effort. Legal Basta’s program emphasizes:

Community Engagement: Organizing awareness campaigns and events to educate the broader public.

Policy Advocacy: Collaborating with stakeholders to influence legislation and policies that protect women’s rights.

Network Building: Connecting participants with local organizations, support groups, and resources.

Through these initiatives, we strive to build a supportive ecosystem that champions the rights and safety of women.
