Srishti Bakshi, a marketer-turned-women’s-rights-activist, embarked on an on-foot pilgrimage of 3,800 kilometers through 12 Indian states from Kanyakumari to Kashmir, to put a spotlight on the root causes of violence against women, and also to empower women and reveal stories of resilience by conducting over 100 workshops focused on women’s safety, along with digital and financial literacy.
Srishti captured her journey in the documentary WOMB: Women Of My Billion, which exposes the raw emotions and realities of women living in India today. Through her actions, more than 100,000 individuals have been mobilized across all genders. Since the launch of WOMB in 2021, the documentary film has been featured in over 14 international film festivals across four continents.
