Sahayathrika

Sahayatrika is an organization catering to AFAB(Assigned Female at Birth) community of Kerala origin. The name is a Malayalam word meaning "Women fellow-travelers".

The organization mainly works on counselling, community-organizing and survival of AFAB community from gender and sexual minorities. It was started by Canadian immigrant Malayali Deepa Vasudevan.[1] The organisation also collaborates on LGBT public awareness-building programs.[2]

Sahayatrika was formed in the backdrop of rising lesbian suicide rates at a certain point in time in Kerala. Initial discussions on Sahayathrika happened in 2001. The first project, in association with a mental health organization, FIRM, was started in 2002. In 2008, Sahayatrika became an independent registered organization.

The organisation celebrated its 20th anniversary in 2022 by organising a grand function titled Idam, inaugurated by Minister of Higher Education and Social Justice, R. Bindu and attended by prominent personalities and activists including actress Shakeela.[3]

Pro-choice and pro-life

Terms used in the abortion debate Pro-choice and pro-life are terms of self-identification used by the two sides of the abortion debate: those who support access to abortion, and those who seek to restrict it, respectively. They are generally considered loaded language, since they frame the corresponding position in terms of inherently positive qualities (and thus position their opponents as anti-choice or anti-life). For this reason, more neutral or descriptive alternatives are sometimes pre...
