Pratisandhi is synonymous for resistance, and that’s our resolve, to resist the age-old belief of sex as taboo, by promoting dialogue and awareness of sexual health and education in India, and around the world. We want to bring forth a platform that can allow for openness regarding issues that are considered a taboo in our society in order to move towards a more progressive mindset.   

Behind Pratisandhi is a group of dedicated people with a shared goal of creating an open space where teenagers can come to find the answers they’re always looking for but never seem to find – those about the changes that their bodies are going through and how they’re supposed to deal with them. The idea is to empower them to be able to make informed decisions.

Pratisandhi is a student-led initiative founded by Niyati Sharma. Our team comprises of college students and young professionals from different walks of life. Currently, our team has over 25 volunteers and 11 core members working in cohesion. Together, we wish to bring about a change in the way our society views and approaches conversations about sex and sexuality.
