People’s Archive of Rural India (PARI) partnered with Newsworthy.Studio to produce a series of five long-form stories from the ground on sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV), supported by Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) India. The series illuminates the stigma surrounding SGBV, and social, institutional and structural barriers to care for women and gender minorities in rural India who survived it.
Highlighting social, institutional and systemic barriers to care faced by SGBV survivors
Five longform reported stories that reframe SGBV as a public health issue, amplify marginalised voices, foster informed public discourse
From the story of a transman in Haryana and survivors of rape in Maharashtra and Rajasthan, to lived experiences of trafficking survivors in Assam and Uttar Pradesh, the reportage spans a wide range of issues related to health, rights, law & order, justice systems, and gender. Newsworthy.Studio played a pivotal role in bringing this series to life—from crafting editorial guidelines and curating pitches to meticulously editing each story in collaboration with the journalists, before it was published, illustrated, and translated to 14 Indian languages by the PARI team.
