ABOUT US

The transgender community has a powerful historical presence in India, a country acknowledged for its diversity in culture, history and beliefs. And yet, a country that holds pride in its tradition, has ignored to acknowledge the presence of the transgender community completely. Instances of crime and violence against the transgender community grow more frequent every day. 

​

To create a safe space for the transgender community in Delhi, we, a group of creative thinkers, established Pehchaan. Pehchaan is a social campaign that uses trans rights advocacy, public space interventions and art as catalysts to create awareness and inclusive space for the people of the community. We conduct engage with the community through surveys, discussions and research to understand how the community wants to be represented and their expectations from public spaces.
