It is a residential program that focuses on the study of sexuality in its intersections with gender and human rights. It helps participants form links between critical theory in sexuality and gender, and various fields of practice, such as sexual and reproductive health and rights.

The SGRI is designed for practitioners such as activists, those engaged in health policy-making, or other kinds of advocates engaged in social change processes. The Institute takes place three times a year as SGRI –India (English), SGRI- India (Hindi) and SGRI – Alumni. 

One of the SGRI’s key objectives is to give participants the tools to be able to critically examine the manner in which their own programs, strategies, and practices in the field of sexual and reproductive health are designed and implemented, to encourage better and more thoughtful praxis.  There is a special emphasis on pedagogy and faculty at SGRI, bringing people at the top of their respective fields together to create curricula and deliver the institute. 

CREA’s Institutes, particularly the SGRI, have shaped more than 3,000 activists, who are working in the fields of women’s rights, disability rights, gender, sexuality, LGBTIQ rights, sexual and reproductive health and more.

The institute has resulted in stronger sharing of information and cross-regional learnings between activists and practitioners and has enabled activists from across India to address issues of consent, violence, non-discrimination, and equality in new ways in their interventions, their  advocacy and in their program implementation. It has fostered greater inter-movement dialogues and networking.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” equal_height=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1532520366784{padding-bottom: 30px !important;background-color: #f1f2f2 !important;}”][vc_column][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” equal_height=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1532520366784{padding-bottom: 30px !important;background-color: #f1f2f2 !important;}”][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1596299085678{padding-bottom: 10px !important;}”]
