Discussing sexual and reproductive health can be awkward for most young people, but in India, there are almost no discussions at all. Young people in India have limited access to sexual and reproductive health information and services, which makes them vulnerable to multiple health conditions with lifelong consequences.
Kissa Kahani is a uniquely designed, evidence-based intervention that provides information about sexual and reproductive health to Indian adolescents through storytelling, multimedia, and innovative research.
Created by Ci3 (Center for Interdisciplinary Inquiry and Innovation) at the University of Chicago, with Ramya Ramakrishnan Design and Curriculum developers Stratcomm Consulting, Kissa Kahani educates adolescents ages 12 to 14 about sexual and reproductive health in schools across India.
Core Design Team:
Ramya Ramakrishnan – Concept, Direction & Art

Shruti Prabhu – Branding & Graphic Design
