What We Do
01.
Vision
Our vision is to break the cycle of gender-based violence in impoverished nations, resulting in communities where women, children and young people are empowered to live free from the fear of assault and oppression.
02.
Our Story
The Ruby Road Project was birthed during a trip to India in late 2011, when twin sisters Amy Kuruvilla and Lydia Muirhead met two young girls who had been sold into brothels as minors.
03.
Programs
The Road to Respect Program is an initiative developed by Amy Kuruvilla. After being deeply impacted by the Delhi (Nirbhaya) rape case in 2012, she felt a burden to do something about it. Amy subsequently spent time researching the rape culture in India to gain a deeper understanding of the root causes.
