Through a mixed-methods study across six states, we spoke with women, community influencers, and frontline actors to map what data alone cannot reveal. These insights are now guiding Oxfam’s behaviour-change communication strategy, ensuring messages are grounded in reality, not assumptions.

In partnership with Oxfam India, Athena set out to trace these invisible threads. Our formative research looked beyond incidents to examine the social beliefs that justify violence, the power dynamics that reinforce silence & the community expectations that influence whether survivors ever seek help
