“Thanks to Bina Maria Mathews (Bees Tales) for the wonderful way in which she equipped children with the knowledge and understanding they need to stay safe from any kind of abuse.

Children were encouraged to speak out if they felt worried about any uncomfortable incident, either to a trusted adult or Childline. To convey the message, she chose the fantastic picture book ‘No Means No’ about an empowered little girl who has a very strong and clear voice in all issues, especially those relating to her body and personal boundaries. Interesting discussions followed about the steps to be taken in a difficult situation: to yell loudly, run away, and tell a trusted adult until they listened and responded.

To reiterate this point, Childline’s brilliant short film ‘Komal’ and a couple of other videos were also screened.
