Unmute Foundation exists to give voice to the unheard. We turn silence into safety, bias into belonging, and potential into power — building braver workplaces and stronger communities across the world.
Unmute Foundation is the social impact arm of Unmute — born from a simple belief: every person deserves to be heard, protected, and given the chance to rise.
We work where silence does the most damage — in workplaces where harassment goes unreported, in communities where children are unprotected, and in systems where talent is overlooked because of who someone is. We don't just raise awareness. We build the policies, the training, and the courage that make speaking up safe.
Our mission is borderless. Whether in a boardroom, a classroom, or a factory floor, we believe the right to be heard is universal — and we're here to defend it everywhere.
When the unheard speak, the world has to listen.— THE UNMUTE PROMISE
Awareness alone fades. Our model carries every community through the full cycle — from preventing harm to reforming the systems that allow it.
Training, awareness, and policy design that stop harm before it starts — PoSH, POCSO, DEI, and safety education.
Unmute Circles and forums that turn isolated participants into a community where raising your voice is safe.
Refreshers, climate surveys, audits, and re-certification so safe behaviour sticks long after the workshop ends.
Confidential helpline, trained external committee members, counselling, and legal-aid referral when harm occurs.
Research, advocacy, and government partnership that change the policies and systems behind the silence.
Six focused initiatives, one purpose — dismantling silence and building the skills, safety, and systems people need to thrive.
Prevention of Sexual Harassment programs that build compliant, courageous workplaces — policy design, committee training, and confidential redress systems that actually work.
Safe WorkplacesProtecting children from abuse through awareness drives, educator training, and community programs that teach kids and guardians how to recognize, report, and respond.
Child ProtectionDiversity, Equity & Inclusion frameworks that move beyond slogans — embedding belonging into hiring, leadership, and everyday culture across organizations.
BelongingCultivating brave, ethical leaders — especially from underrepresented groups — through mentorship, coaching, and real responsibility that changes who gets to lead.
Future LeadersWorkshops, certifications, and capacity-building that equip teams and communities with the knowledge to act — practical, measurable, and built to last.
Capacity BuildingUnlocking livelihoods by equipping people — youth, women, and the underserved — with employable, future-ready skills and the confidence to use them.
OpportunityOur next wave of programs reaches the places PoSH and POCSO never touch — online, in the informal economy, and inside the culture itself.
Cyber harassment, image-based abuse, doxxing, and child online safety — protection and redressal for where silence now hides.
Digital SafetyCounselling access, workplace mental health, and survivor support that heals the trauma harm leaves behind.
Mental HealthSafety and grievance systems for domestic workers, gig workers, and small businesses — the unorganized sector left unprotected.
Informal SectorVernacular legal-literacy campaigns that turn the law into something people can actually use to protect themselves.
Legal LiteracyEngaging men and boys through bystander and masculinity programs — the most proven lever for preventing gender violence.
Culture ChangeDisability accessibility and LGBTQ+ safety — naming the inclusion that DEI too often leaves unspoken.
InclusionA research, policy & advocacy arm that publishes data and shapes the laws and systems behind the silence.
Research & PolicyYouth & campus chapters plus storytelling through film and theatre — breaking silence at the cultural level.
Youth & MediaWorkshops don't scale on their own. We multiply reach through trainers, technology, and three doors into every community.
Every program creates new local facilitators, so reach compounds instead of stopping when we leave the room.
Short, mobile-first modules in regional languages — because safety education shouldn't be English-only or urban-only.
We enter through employers, schools and universities, and grassroots networks — meeting people where they already are.
A course teaches. A community changes things. Circles turn scattered participants into a movement where raising your voice is safe — and never solitary.
Real programs, real reach. Every figure is a person who was heard, protected, or empowered.
Figures are illustrative placeholders — update with your verified program data.
Prevention is half the promise. When harm happens, we make sure there's a safe, confidential path to help — not a dead end.
A safe first point of contact and intake — every report treated with privacy and care.
Trained external members for Internal Committees under the PoSH Act, where organizations struggle to find them.
Emotional support and referral to legal help, so no one navigates the aftermath alone.
POCSO-aligned protocols and direct links to Childline (1098) for mandatory, child-first reporting.
Note: Redressal services follow the PoSH Act, 2013 and the POCSO Act, 2012. The Foundation supports and supplements — it does not replace — an organization's statutory Internal Committee or mandatory legal reporting duties.
We work alongside government bodies, employers, and educators — because protection at scale needs official backbone.
