We are committed to representing survivors' stories in a respectful, dignified, accurate and empowering way.

That's why, on World Day Against Trafficking in Persons, we've signed Freedom United's My Story, My Dignity Pledge.
Picture
Raising awareness of the lived experience of modern slavery and human trafficking is essential if we are going to make progress to end it, but too often, survivors' stories are told with disempowering language and images. 

These images and lanuage can unintentionally create or reinforce stereotypes and further victimise survivors.
We commit to the principles of the My Story, My Dignity pledge: ​
  • Choose respectful images that are representative of the issue
  • Use strength-based language that accurately represents the story, avoiding sensationalist language
  • Respect survivors' right to privacy and dignity
  • Obtain prior consent to using a personal story or photograph, be transparent and accurate about the process and how it will be used
How are we putting the pledge into practice?

We would like to thank all of you for supporting Project Didi and our partner Asha Nepal through the purchase of tickets for the screening of I AM BELMAYA.

We sold over 70 tickets and raised more than $1,600!

Belmaya and her daughter will also receive a portion of your contributions.

We hope you enjoyed the film produced by this inspiring young woman who was determined that her daughter would be able to ‘walk the right path’, through education. Her determination and resilience, along with the courage to challenge tradition and pursue the opportunities of filmmaking, has made her an amazing role model for other young women.

Here is what you thought of the film:

​"I loved, loved, loved the film! I was completely engrossed."

"It will inspire many women and girls to reach higher throughout the world."

"Wonderful film. Had me in tears but ended in such joy." 

"A powerful story of a brave young woman, taking charge of her life and future, despite the prejudice and limitations. Inspirational!"
