To ensure the rights of all survivors and facilitate access to entitled services, we have submitted deputations to district-level stakeholders and also have carried out advocacy with block and PRI members to reduce barriers in accessing services at the community level. These sustained advocacy efforts and deputations have significantly minimized long-standing challenges faced by survivors in accessing support and entitlements.

Simultaneously, we helped community members understand that reducing challenges and barriers requires collective action and responsibility, rather than blaming others.

To strengthen and streamline the mentoring process of Bijoyini, a core Council has been formed with representative leaders from each block. These council members receive focused mentoring to enhance efficiency, dynamism, and problem-solving capacity, and to enable them to co-facilitate and support other members of their respective teams effectively.
Establishment of Bijoyini Survivors’ Collective as an Organization
The Bijoyini Survivors’ Collective has been registered under the Society Registration Act and now functions independently with a distinct organizational identity. This milestone has brought a positive shift in mindset, fostering greater responsibility, ownership, and accountability among our members. The transition has also strengthened our capacity, enabling us to grow as leaders and manage initiatives more effectively.

To strengthen networks and play a meaningful role within the anti–human trafficking ecosystem, we have initiated inter-state networking with other survivor collectives and organizations. Through regular engagement and collaboration, these networks are steadily growing stronger, enabling survivors to establish themselves as a collective pressure group capable of influencing policies that directly impact their lives. In addition, we are expanding our reach by initiating networks with international organizations and collectives working globally to prevent and end human trafficking.
