Khushi on the New York Times Women in the World
The American Jewish World Service recently released the second video for their Ending Child Marriage campaign. This video features Khushi Prajapati's story as a female taxi driver in the busy streets of Delhi, India. As part of a fleet of women taxi drivers, Khushi is an integral part of the Azad Foundation's approach to ending child marriage. Through Azad's training, women learn to drive, are trained in self-defense, and become financially independent, which enables them to avoid early child marriage.
The video was picked up by Women in the World, a New York Times affiliate, and has received a wonderful response to Khushi's inspiring story.
