Real Heroes of Change: Odisha Women Take a Stand Against Child Marriage

In Balasore, Odisha, a movement is taking shape, not through words, but through fearless action. When Bijaya Jena and her self-help group learned about their rights, they didn’t just listen. They acted. When they discovered a 15-year-old girl in their village was about to be married off, they stepped in and stopped it. “We convinced them, and the marriage was called off.” Across 152 self-help groups, women like Santilata Dey are leading the charge—fighting child marriage, resisting dowry, and reshaping their communities. “Twenty women from our panchayat attended the training. Now, we are determined to take this movement forward.” This is more than awareness. It’s action. It’s change. And it’s being led by the women themselves. Share this story. Stand against child marriage. Support women-led change. #WomenAgainstChildMarriage #BreakTheCycle #WomenLedChange #TataSteelFoundation
