She Says She's Fine

What is abuse? Why don't women ask for help when they need it? What are some forms of abuse women face? Where should women report cases of abuse? What rights do women have in these situations? How do women break out of abusive relationships? What are the obstacles that women face in reporting cases of abuse? What constitutes marital rape? What is the role of the police department and the hospital in these cases? Is there a protocol that should be followed in case of assault or abuse? What are the Government and NGOs doing to ensure women’s safety?   This week, Dr. Munjaal talks to Dr. Nayreen Daruwalla, Program Director for Prevention of Violence against Women and Children at SNEHA along with Donita Quadros, a project associate with the Commonwealth Human Rights Initiative who works on police reform, about how to deal with abuse.   --
