      WHY YOU MUST BOL!

Must Bol is a call to young people to examine the violence in their lives and speak out against it.  


Led by a core group of young people from Delhi, Must Bol explores the restrictive situations created by gender norms and invites young people to join the dialogue and efforts to change the situation. We believe that we need to recognize this violence, to talk about it, and to address it. And today we invite you to join us.

The Must Bol Campaign is facilitated by Commutiny the Youth Collective, an organization that celebrates and nurtures youth leadership for social change.


We invite you to participate in the Campaign by engaging with our videos and blog posts and by spreading the word amongst your friends and family.

MUST WATCH FILMS

Caught: Street harassers watch out! Someone is watching you too!

I Let Be I: How does one become a man? Sometimes young men struggle to claim their own identity when everyone else tells them how to be a Real Man!

Break The Silence: How would you react to Street Sexual Harassment? Maybe by breaking the silence and shame around it?

Does Love Control?: Ever though about when is it care and when is it control?

Enjoyed the films, then find out more about our prolific filmmaker Manish Sharma.

If you would like to talk more about 'body' and attend a Must Bol workshop on Gender & Body Image facilitated by Pramada Menon, then email us at mus...@commutiny.in

Pink & Blue Confusing You!

"The workshop brought out how gender is built into small things in our daily lives which we don't even thing about... yet practiced or experience. Also how wide a term gender usually is that just male/female"
Feedback from a participant from a workshop
that Must Bol hosted for 17 teenagers.

Must Bol Presents...
Last Friday, Team Must Bol screened Short Films around issues of Gender Norms and hosted a discussion around the films at Manzil, a Delhi based youth organization. We had excited young people stirred into reflection sharing their own perspectives and experiences.
This Summer, we are organizing a series of such screenings around Delhi
. If you would like to screen Must Bol films & host a discussion around them, or just attend one of such sessions, do drop in a line at mus...@commutiny.in
 
 
 

Fearless-Bol-Q3 2
Fearless Bol

Some thoughts are never shared because they are wrong!
Some ideas are never shared because they are private!
Some experiences are never shared because they are taboo!
But just because we won’t talk about it will not make it go away. Fearless Bol is a safe and anonymous space.
This month on Fearless Bol, we invite people to share one thing about their bodies that they dislike. Share Now!
