Through WeTalk Legal Rights, his focus is on creating awareness around legal rights, POCSO, child sexual abuse (CSA), child protection, gender-based violence (GBV), legal safeguards and available remedies, while encouraging informed conversations around issues that are often misunderstood, overlooked or difficult to discuss.
The initiative aims to bridge the gap between the law as it is written and the law as people experience it—by explaining legal concepts in clear language, developing awareness campaigns, creating educational resources and encouraging individuals to understand their rights and responsibilities.
As Founder, Vinay leads the initiative’s vision, strategy, campaigns, educational programmes, content and collaborations, with an emphasis on responsible, accessible and meaningful legal awareness.
