SAAHAS GENDER JUSTICE LABS

Gender Justice Labs (GJL) is a flagship initiative by Sky Social, implemented in partnership with the Madhya Pradesh State Women’s Commission and supported by the Vital Voices Global Partnership and the Estée Lauder Emerging Leaders Fund (ELELF) under the Beautiful Forces Grant Program. Implemented across two districts, Mandla and Damoh in Madhya Pradesh, the initiative creates community-rooted ecosystems for gender justice, safety, and survivor support. Gender Justice Labs go beyond awareness to build integrated support systems, combining healing, legal aid, digital access, and community leadership. The program works with women, youth, elected representatives, and frontline workers to strengthen both individual resilience and institutional accountability. Through trauma-informed healing circles, legal literacy, safety audits, digital tools like IVR systems, and youth-led campaigns, GJL aims to transform how communities understand, respond to, and prevent gender-based violence.
