This WebApp - Stand Up Against Violence is a joint collaboration between Akshara Centre, a women's right organisation, Tata Institute of Social Sciences (RCI-VAW) and Department of Women and Child (Government of Maharashtra). The app includes mobile numbers of State and non- State agencies, service providers, women's movement groups responding to violence against women across Maharashtra at subdistrict level.
