Saahas

Saahas is a one-stop-spot for all kinds of assistance and support that a survivor of gender-based violence may seek.

The map comprises markers in eleven categories:

legal help, medical help, resources, education and employment, consulates, refugee support centres, police helplines, child support, lgbtqia support, campus helplines and ambulance helplines.

Our Libraries offer comprehensive information on Gender-Based Violence, tips on how to handle gender-based violence when faced with it, and templates for safety plans. In addition, it also has a list-based directory of country-wise support for survivors. You may click on the country of your choice, and copy down / save screenshots of all the listings for future offline use, as well. We have a section for survivors on concepts of safety planning and how to respond to gender-based violence among other things, a section for bystanders on such things as how to intervene and prepare to intervene in a situation where GBV operates / occurs, a legal library which talks about basic rights and laws around the world among other similar aspects, a medical library which offers information on forensic medical evidence and seeking medical help.

Saahas is available in six languages: Arabic, Chinese, English, French, Spanish, and Russian.
