Jasvinder Sanghira

Window to the World Award
Jasvinder Sanghira has campaigned for the rights of victims of forced marriage, domestic violence and honour killings. She refused her own forced marriage and broke the silence by sharing her experience, and the experiences of her six older sisters, who were all taken to India to marry and then found themselves trapped in abusive and oppressive relationships. It is her belief and courage that has opened a window of opportunity to those in need.
