Mass media students of Wilson College, Mumbai have launched a campaign in an effort to create awareness about the transgender community and their causes in the city. Known as ‘De Taali’, this campaign’s end goal is to include the transgender community in the education and  employment process without the social stigma that is generally attached to them. The group of students have tied up with activists as well as NGOs that work with transgender people. As part of this initiative, the Wilson students organised an awareness concert with bands like Agnee and Mumbai Stamp.
Also on the agenda are workshops and seminars across Mumbai’s colleges. They plan to screen documentaries and start discussions on this topic. The campaign has taken off really well from the looks of it as the ‘De Taali’ Facebook page has already managed to receive 282 likes.
