Silent Abuse Normalised in India

Vaamaa Baldota, the founder of iDare, talks about the common but often overlooked forms of silent abuse in India.

These include emotional abuse, gaslighting, financial control, and isolation, which are often dismissed as normal relationship issues.

iDare provides an integrated support system for survivors, offering emotional, legal, and practical support without forcing them to leave harmful situations immediately.

The organization focuses on prevention through teaching emotional literacy, boundaries, and healthy communication.

iDare also emphasizes the importance of culturally rooted trauma-informed care, respecting regional nuances and community dynamics.
