An estimated 3,000 women and 500 children call the brothels of India’s largest red light district in Delhi, home. Non-profit organization Kat-Katha is on the ground connecting with these women and children, helping sex workers regain their dignity with livelihoods beyond the brothel. In a purpose-built space aptly named “Dream Village,” women cut the strings of societal stigma, and begin the transformative journey to brand new lives.
