The Missing Link Trust is one of India’s leading organizations working to prevent sex trafficking through awareness, education and empowerment. It is the brainchild of Leena Kejriwal, founder of “Missing”, a public art project started in 2014 with the single purpose of creating mass awareness on sex trafficking and slavery through education and art. Now, with the MISSING podcast series, Leena explores issues around child sex trafficking in India, child marriage, porn & adolescent sexuality, cyber safety and more. Through the experience and insight from experts in the space and looking at real life cases that have found their way in the public eye, we see how each one of us can play an active role to prevent this issue, that is much closer to home than we realise.

Reintegration of Survivors

On the MISSING podcast this week, we’re taking a look at the subject of sexual delinquency and children in conflict with law. Sharing their insights on this episode are Puneeta Roy, Founder Trustee of The Yuva Ekta Foundation, who has been working with young people in conflict with law for over a decade, and cyber psychologist and psychotherapist Nirali Bhatia, who is well known for analysing online behaviour, counselling cybercrime victims and creating awareness on cyber bullying. They tell us more about what goes on in the minds of these young offenders, what is triggering this kind of violent sexual behaviour in adolescents, whether juvenile detention centres and remand homes offer effective rehabilitation solutions, and discuss an important question – are we too quick to cast judgement and blame these children for offences that clearly have its roots embedded deep in our society?
