My mission is simple: to help young girls and women understand their bodies, notice early changes, and view breast awareness not with fear, but with confidence. Why is this important? Because Breast Self-Exam ​ - Is free - Is simple - Is an empowering method for women of all socio-economic backgrounds to become familiar with their breasts and recognize changes, which are often the initial signs of breast cancer. If breast cancer is detected early it​ can be treated.

About the innovation

Why did you create this innovation?

I founded Pink Nari at 15 after witnessing my mother’s journey through breast cancer - an experience that showed me how life-saving early detection can be.
When I tried to learn about breast self-examination myself, I realized that most awareness materials were designed for older women and written in a clinical tone that can feel intimidating for younger girls and women. From my own experience, I saw how this gap quietly discourages young people from engaging with knowledge that could one day protect their health.
Determined to change this, I created Pink Nari, an initiative that develops youth-friendly breast health awareness resources with guidance from doctors.

What does your innovation look like in practice?

Pink Nari blends health education with thoughtful design and modern communication strategies.
By leveraging social media, scannable resources, and shareable content, we are able to reach larger audiences at a fraction of traditional outreach costs — making preventive breast care awareness scalable, inclusive, and youth-friendly.
Pink Nari is not just about information. It is about presentation, accessibility, and action.

Modern messaging. Meaningful design.
Measurable impact.

How has it been spreading?

Our bookmarks, reels, stickers have a QR code which can be scanned using your phone.

Bookmarks
In English, hindi & marathi our bookmarks are designed to be attractive and easy to distribute. They gently remind women and young girls to prioritize their breast health.
Each bookmark carries a QR code that instantly connects users to a guided Breast Self-Exam resource. Whether placed inside a school notebook, a novel, an office diary, or a community library book, it becomes a quiet but consistent nudge toward self-awareness and early detection.

In today’s fast-paced digital world, awareness needs to meet people where they are — on their screens.

Reel
Our Pink Nari Breast Self-Exam awareness reel is a short yet powerful video designed to quickly explain why regular self-examination matters and how early detection can save lives.
In less than 20 seconds, the reel simplifies an important health message, breaks the hesitation around talking about breast health, and directs viewers to a trusted, guided resource to learn the correct method. Its concise, engaging format makes it easy to share across social media, helping the message travel beyond geographical and generational boundaries.

Stickers
Almost every woman today has access to a mobile phone and thanks to UPI, India knows how to scan a QR code! This creates a unique opportunity to spread this awareness through QR code stickers which are placed in public washrooms, local trains & high women footfall areas like malls.
