Mission Statement

Kat-Katha's mission is to enable women and children living in brothels to live a life of their own choice and pursue their dreams with Dignity, Ownership and Compassion.

About This Cause

Kat-Katha works with women and children living in brothels, who were trafficked/forced into sex work at a young age. Over the years Kat-Katha has been creating safe spaces and life choices for the women and children to learn, explore and come alive with a sense of connection, expression, and possibility. Kat-Katha was born on the streets of G.B. Road in 2013, the largest red-light area in the National capital region. Since its inception, Kat-Katha has been guided by the vision “To End Forced Sex work’. In a span of over eight years, Kat-Katha has worked with ~1500 trafficked women and ~200 children on GB Road through efforts in: 1. Community Building: We conduct mobilisation activities, field research, cultural celebrations and healthcare awareness drives. 2. Education: We enrol children in regular schools, run an after-school on GB Road and conduct literacy classes for women inside brothels. 3. Livelihoods: We have a delivery kitchen in Pandav Nagar, New Delhi, where women from GB Road, lead a culinary business called Maitri Meals. Kat-Katha has been recognized at several prestigious forums including L’oreal Paris Femina Women Awards, Times Now Amazing Indian Award, Zee TV Fempowerment, Mahindra Rise Award, and so on.
