The problem

Forced sex work and crushed dreams

There are many victims of sex trafficking living across 85 brothels at GB Road, Delhi. Most of the women were sold to these dark brothels at a tender age. Exploited & abused these women as well as their children are stuck in meagre conditions, with healthcare, education, sanitation, shelter, nutrition, and exposure far beyond reach.

Our Story

Our Philosophy of Change

Our Work & Impact

In 2011, an unanticipated encounter with the women forced into sex work at GB Road motivated Gitanjali Babbar to quit her job of a program officer at NACO. The condition of these women and children shook her soul and she decided to stay back and bring the change in this darkest street of Delhi.

The women were abused and exploited, and the children were deprived of basic facilities like quality education & life choices. She chose to teach and empower them while living inside the brothels. A year later Kat-Katha was started and registered under the Societies Act 1860, to scale the reach and its impact.

Kat-Katha has over the years worked on understanding the major causes leading to forced sex work to stem the rot at the source. We invest in creating safe spaces in the brothels to connect at a deeper level and build trust with the social ecology of the red-light district, and using this as a platform to integrate the community with mainstream society, provide education, life and vocational skills for holistic development and rehabilitation.

The process of transformation is arduous, yet enriching to support them to start life afresh with confidence, acceptance and respect.

In a short span of over nine years, Kat-Katha has transformed the lives of several women and children living in the brothels at GB Road.

Our team nurtures their dreams, educates and enriches the community through programs like academic support, expressive arts, mental health support, vocational trainings like stitching and cooking, job and internship opportunities as a means to explore life choices.
