Impact

Sania lives in a slum with her parents and 4 sisters; studies in a government school in 5th grade. Her mother and oldest sister (17) work as a house help and father drives a rickshaw. Every night her father gets drunk and beats her mother, and sometimes the sisters too. Sania witnesses similar stories around her neighbourhood. Before coming to school, she cooks and finishes the household chores as her mother had already left for work. She has internalised this as the ultimate fate of all the girls in her community. As Sania enters 6th grade, the bi-weekly MukkaMaar classes start for all girls in 6th grade. Initially, she, along with her friends, feel awkward and reluctant to participate because the class feels tough and ‘not-girly’. MukkaMaar trainers enable her to feel safe and overcome this barrier of shame associated with doing exercises which are not quintessentially womanly. She begins to enjoy exercises and starts feeling stronger, the games help her to talk about things she never dared to utter. She begins to identify various facets of violence, then she starts to realise that violence is not acceptable and learns skills to combat it if needed. Since 2018, MukkaMaar has trained 3K girls offline, 16K girls online and indirectly impacted ~50K girls through training 315 PT teachers.

Vision and Mission

MukkaMaar's vision is to create a world with gender equity where every girl has agency. Their mission is to enable 25 million adolescent girls in India to rediscover their inner power to live violence-free lives by 2030.
