We Need Washrooms!

Produced by Azad Foundation and Breakthrough India, this song highlights a pressing issue: the lack of safe and clean washrooms for women in public spaces. Azad's women drivers say NO to this injustice and demand basic human dignity and access to clean, safe washrooms for all.

For even the most basic of human biological functions, women do not have safe and clean washrooms to use in public areas (markets, streets, schools, etc). While causing discomfort, it also affects their confidence to access public spaces. As a result, they are not able to access jobs which require them to be out of the house, or in the case of girls, access higher education. Girls are made to stay home as soon as they start menstruating because there are no washrooms in schools, or if there are – they are broken, locked, dirty or/and unsafe.

In order for women to be able to access livelihoods with dignity, an entire supportive ecosystem needs to be created for them to access public spaces. Washroom access has turned into a series of problems for girls and women, especially those who are resource-poor. We say NO! Why should women suffer or made to feel ashamed about this? We are demanding basic human dignity! We need WASHROOMS!
