Our Story

After the death of a female relative due to an abusive partner, we, Zaara and Stella, saw the need for substantial course correction in societal norms.

After learning more about domestic violence and its psychological under belly we began to understand why victims cannot easily leave their relationship and gain control of their lives. After extensive communication with lawyers, politicians, M.P’s, government organizations, NGOs, lawmakers, and the police it was clear that although laws are in place to prevent elderly financial abuse and domestic violence the implementation across several communities is impaired because of existing socio-cultural and socio-economic norms.

In our case, the South Asian community, as evidenced by the experience of a close family member, has social norms and narratives that make it hard for victims to ask for help, even if they live within nations where domestic abuse is outlawed.

Join us in the journey to eradicate domestic violence by addressing the psychological and cognitive root of this global health concern.
