Abstract: Alice Garg describes the various strategies that the Bal Rashmi Society has been employing over three decades in their fight against violence against women. In sharing the story of Bal Rashmi – an NGO started in 1972 for orphans, destitute girls and women – she underlines the importance of communication amongst the people working against VAW on different levels. She looks at the need to build good communication, solidarity and collaboration slowly and sustainably when taking on corrupt political actors, learning from the distressing time that her Society experienced in Rajasthan in 1997.
