Wall paintings on the Issue of Dowry

We work in the field of Human Rights and Women Empowerment in Usilampatti Taluk of Madurai District.  Violence against women such as female feticide, infanticide, dowry harassments, eve teasing and domestic violence are common in the rural area in Madurai district. Through wall painting at public places in the village, we educate rural people on the importance of giving assets to their daughters/sisters instead giving jewels, utensils and other movable assets that can be easily sold. The awareness generating picture has helped lot of women on human rights and raise voice against the dowry demands by her husbands. We want to continue to educating the people on Freedom from Dowry.
