This is what Reetika Verma has to say about Indian society's reaction to buying contraceptives. Youth Ki Awaaz and MTV Nishedh have come together to #TalkNishedh. We want to understand the Indian youth's relationship with contraception and how masculinity impacts their sexual relationships. Read on to see what Reetika has to say. "We are a nation of more than 1.3 billion people. For a country that shies away from talking about sex, Indians are definitely having a lot of it. Despite this, the conversation around contraception continues to invite raised brows. This conversation turns even more hushed when it is centred around women. With these topics still being taboo, buying contraception can be a terrible experience for women."

🎬✨ SRHR Video Series: Episode 9 - Comprehensive Sex Education In this episode of the CCID SRHR Video Series, we delve into the transformative power of Comprehensive Sex Education (CSE). CSE equips individuals—especially young people—with accurate information, critical thinking skills, and values to make informed decisions about their health, relationships, and futures. It promotes consent, respect, and equality, playing a vital role in preventing gender-based violence and ensuring everyone can exercise their Sexual and Reproductive Health Rights (SRHR). As part of the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence, the Community Centre for Integrated Development (CCID) champions the inclusion of CSE in schools and communities as a tool for empowerment and social change. 📢 Watch, share, and advocate for CSE. Together, we can create a future where knowledge leads to equality and safety. #16DaysOfActivism #EndGBV #ComprehensiveSexEducation #SRHRMatters #CCIDForChange #EmpowerThroughKnowledge #ConsentAndRespect
