Shakti is a mobile-based intervention that empowers Indian women with low levels of literacy to enforce their rights and access legal and public health resources. We are an organisation that believes that all women, regardless of their literacy levels, should have the information and opportunities they need to enforce their legal rights. We leverage the high mobile penetration rate in India to reach out to women who are otherwise cut off from the legal system. We create audio and visual content that provides1. legal information 2. plans of action, and 3. access to legal and public health resourcesWomen can call us and navigate an automated Interactive Voice Response System, or they can send us an audio note on WhatsApp that will send them relevant video content. We develop content on issues that affect women in India. Starting with Domestic Violence, we plan to cover Sexual Harassment, Rape, and Divorce, among other pressing issues.
