The initiative aims to:
  1. Increase the confidence and competence of Indian adolescents and their parents to negotiate and redefine strategic decision-making within the constraints presented by the social context
  2. Create a culture of change for the Indian adolescent so that they can break free (the force-field) of social expectations that limit their agency
  3. Replace cultures of silence, concealment, shame and compromise with confidence and competence for Indian adolescents
  4. Positively influence social norms that promote gender stereotypes that limit the agency of adolescents and make them vulnerable to abuse, exploitation, discrimination and violence
  5. Produce normative shifts by exposing Indian adolescents and their families to ideology and modeling that increase their confidence and competence to redefine strategic decision-makingÂ
The television series will begin broadcast from 21st October 2016 on Doordarshan National from 730 pm to 8 pm on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.Â
