“Through this platform, we want to raise awareness on the key issue of gender equality and the need to amplify voice against discrimination and combat violence,” said Jyotsna Gullapalli, president of SAFE, emphasising the need for educating and inspiring individuals to challenge gender norms and foster a more equitable and violence-free future.
