Karma Nirvana is a national charity supporting victims of honour-based abuse and forced marriage. Whether you are at risk or are concerned for someone that is, we are available to listen and help.
Honour Based Abuse is not widely recognised as a form of domestic abuse. It is often misunderstood or dismissed in the name of ‘culture’ or ‘tradition’. As a result, it remains hidden.To bring an end to Honour Based Abuse, we must first bring it into the mainstream. This is the focus of our new organisational strategy.
Our aim, to end Honour Based Abuse, is ambitious – but it is not impossible. Despite decades of striving to raise awareness and understanding, Honour Based Abuse is still not understood and is not recognised as a form of domestic abuse. There is little accurate data on its extent or its impact. Its true scale, scope and prevalence are unknown, so it remains a thriving but invisible problem. Meanwhile, shame and stigma prevent victims from speaking out and seeking help.
Who is this aimed at?
This is open to both victims and professionals of honour-based abuse and forced marriage.
