FREEDOM FROM FEAR
Bodhini is an NGO that has been working in the space of online safety, child safety and healing, predominantly in the spaces of sexual violence and abuse since 2014. We have been working mainly in the spaces of preventive education and awareness in the spaces of online safety and healing, firmly believing that every individual has a right to a life free from fear, thus making it our tagline of "freedom from fear".
We Focus on
Cyber Safety
Abuse by predators online who make use of social networking sites and communication tools are on the rise. Staying safe is important.
Child Sexual Abuse
Child sexual abuse or child molestation is a form of child abuse in which an adult or older adolescent uses a child for sexual stimulation.
Healing & Wellness
A highly stressful event or series of events such as abuse is traumatic. There are ways by which one can get over it
what we do
Started as a project of the Rotary Club of Cochin Metropolis in 2015, Bodhini evolved into Bodhini Metropolis Charitable Trust, a trust that is currently working in the areas of online safety, body safety for children and healing, predominantly in the spaces of sexual violence.
Bodhini believes that empowering individuals, with the knowledge of safety rules and with the courage to never give into threats, is the best bet to keeping them safe, thus working in the spaces of preventive awareness and empowerment by creating awareness sessions through schools, colleges and other institutions. Bodhini strongly believes that life should never be defined by fear or threat and that each person deserves to heal and move on to better spaces.
In addition to the different modules that we deliver through our sessions, we have also developed resource materials that empower and help individuals to heal. We, at Bodhini, were able to fill part of the void in the space of online safety awareness and rules. This came to our attention when two children in Class V took their lives as a result of the blackmail faced by them online. Bodhiniโs biggest accomplishment is the positive change brought about in each individual, child and adult after our sessions, which can also be seen in the trust they show us in asking questions, no matter how sensitive a situation they may happen to be and when they reach out to us in trouble. Additionally, Bodhini has helplines in the space of online safety and provides counselling support to individuals and their families. We also work towards the creation of resource materials and advocate for policy changes. Our resource materials are being used by governments, UNICEF India, the law enforcement agencies and other NGOs, and are also being displayed in court premises. We also do consultations for governments, UNICEF India, the law enforcement and various commissions.
Our strengths lie in tapping on positivity, healing, forgiveness and gratitude. Life is too beautiful to be defined by anything ugly that happened in life. Heal and move on to beautiful spaces ahead. Living well is the best gift you can give yourself.
In freedom from fear and love and healing energies
