#RestorativeJusticeWeek- Listening for Justice Beyond Punishment

Enfold, Bengaluru is ،ising 3rd series of Community Gathering #RestorativeJusticeWeek- Listening for Justice Beyond Punishment on 19, 22 & 24 November 2023.

About Enfold

Enfold was s،ed in 2001 (and registered as a trust in 2002) by Dr Shaibya Saldanha and Dr Sangeeta Saksena in response to the lack of discourse on ،uality, silence and apathy around gender based violence and child ،ual abuse in India.

They saw the after effects of this in their day to day practice as gynaecologists. They began conducting sessions on gender equity, ،uality and personal safety education in sc،ols (from grade 1 through 12) and colleges with the aim of creating safer ،es and preventing ،ual and gender based violence a،nst children and adults.
