    Non-Violent Communication (NVC), also known as Compassionate Communication or Collaborative Communication, is an approach to fostering nonviolent living. Developed by Marshall Rosenberg in the 1960s, NVC recognizes that all individuals share the same fundamental human needs and that actions are strategies to fulfill these needs. Practitioners of NVC experience enhanced authenticity, understanding, connection, and conflict resolution in their communication. NVC challenges the learned habits of thinking and speaking that contribute to violence in society.
    In our organization, we have created an emotional health module focused on Non-Violent Communication. We believe that connecting reproductive health with emotional health is crucial for empowering girls to assert their rights over their bodies.
