Kishori Manch or Girls Groups create a comfortable, safe and trusted environment for adolescent girls to have open conversations with their peers and with the ‘Kishori Girl Group Leaders’ on topics that are considered taboo in society. The girls learn about different crucial topics from trained teachers and their group leaders, and find solutions to challenges they are facing, boosting their self-esteem and confidence. It has been observed that peer educators are particularly effective amongst the youth population, and are an important influence in changing health behaviours.
