Healthy communication helps build strong relationships by making sure both people can share their thoughts and feelings clearly. When we talk openly and listen to each other, we understand each other better, avoid misunderstandings, and solve problems together. #ConsentSeRishta

ECF India #A1 None of us are communication pros – but by exploring together, we can figure out what’s ‘healthy’ in different relationships. How does communicating one’s boundaries lead to healthier relationships – in sex, and other parts of life? agentsofishq.com/post/conversat… #ConsentSeRishta

ECF India #A1 Olympika's personal essay on AOI talks about how communication can help build a mutual, loving sense of accountability towards each other in relationships. agentsofishq.com/post/relations… #ConsentSeRishta

In working with adolescent boys at ECF, teaching them to recognise and respect boundaries helps them form healthier and more respectful connections with others. Example, during a session on #Consent, boys are guided to understand the importance of personal space and verbal cues.

A.3 We can encourage open conversations by creating safe spaces where people feel comfortable talking about consent and boundaries. Hosting workshops, community events, and discussions can help. Using simple language and providing resources also makes it easier.#ConsentSeRishta

#A3 By creating the spaces of Safety, trust, understanding and respect. By encouraging the individuals to be more curious and pairing this Curiosity with Respect for the other person. [1/4] #ConsentSeRishta

ECF India #A3 Many of us were never introduced to boundaries and consent and why they matter in our relationships. Maybe because we grew up on a steady diet of Bollywood where “no” was interpreted as a definite “yes!” Consent ke universe ke baare mein kaise seekhte? #ConsentSeRishta

Emphasize its importance for everyone, regardless of gender or age. Listening, asking questions, and ensuring everyone feels heard creates a safe space for these conversations. #ConsentSeRishta

No individual is perfect and no relationship ideal! We all evolve in coherence. Being supported and reinforced helps in coping with undesirable behaviors & bettering oneself. It benefits by creating an emotionally intimate space to share, trust & work on issues. #ConsentSeRishta

Q.4 Positive reinforcement and mutual support make relationships better by showing appreciation and encouragement. When people feel supported and valued, they are more likely to contribute positively. #ConsentSeRishta

ECF India #A4 Positive reinforcement simply means appreciating each other’s actions and encouraging positive behavior. Supporting and praising each other builds a bond of mutual respect and value, making it easier to handle difficult conversations in any relationship. #ConsentSeRishta

A.5 Talking openly about consent, using simple language, and treating others with respect set a good example. Encouraging kids to share their feelings and listen to others also helps them learn these important values.#ConsentSeRishta #WorldSexualHealthDay

#A5 Learning to say ‘no’ when something does not work for us, and also accepting the ‘no’ from others without any offense. Allowing imperfection and acceptance of the humanness of the self by parents and educators #ConsentSeRishta

A.6 Speaking openly about what each person wants and needs. Pay attention to both words and body language. Check in regularly to make sure you’re on the same page and be willing to adapt as needed. This shows you care and helps keep the relationship strong. #ConsentSeRishta
