Description
The stories we hear shape the world we believe in. But in a world where attention is driven by extremes, stories of resilience and equality are often overlooked. In rural Rajasthan, many girls grow up hearing that their future is already decided. That their role is fixed. That marriage is everything. It is their destiny. Their identity. And they have no say in it. At Pocket FM, we believe stories have the power to change that. Under India Kuch Acha Suno, we created Sound of Courage Episode 2, a story highlighting real girls fighting real battles with real courage, to change the story of their lives. This is the story of young girls using football to challenge the century-old tradition of child marriage. Not just playing a game, but rewriting what they’ve been told is possible. Since this story aired, 15 other NGOs have adopted this idea.
