About the Organization

Enfold was started in 2001 (and registered as a trust in 2002) by Dr Shaibya Saldanha and Dr Sangeeta Saksena in response to the lack of discourse on sexuality, silence and apathy around gender based violence and child sexual abuse in India. They saw the after effects of this in their day to day practice as gynaecologists. They began conducting sessions on gender equity, sexuality and personal safety education in schools (from grade 1 through 12) and colleges with the aim of creating safer spaces and preventing sexual and gender based violence against children and adults.
