Consent has always been at Tinder’s core: Aahana

Dating app Tinder has created a self learning course titled Let’s Talk Consent. The 90 minute video available on coursera provides an overview of consent to Indians. “Consent has always been at Tinder’s core, starting with mutual matching, which requires both users to express interest before chatting, as well as our suite of trust and safety features. We reinforce these efforts through local educational initiatives such as ‘Let’s Talk Consent’. Collaborations with organisations like Yuvaa allow us to provide reliable information and guidance, empowering Tinder users to navigate dating with confidence and respect,’Aahana Dhar, Director of Communications in India, Tinder, said. 

The application has been created in collaboration with Yuvaa and Pink Legal. “At Yuvaa, we meet tens of thousands of young people across India every year and dating and intimacy are among the topics they find hardest to speak about and navigate. Boundaries and consent are so personal but also so important – and with our collaborative effort on the Safe Dating Curriculum launched last year with Tinder, we’ve tried to take the conversation around consent directly to Gen Z in a way that they understand and resonate with. Now, this new online course provides practical strategies for both online and real-life interactions, emphasising safety, open communication, and mutual respect for personal boundaries,” Kevin Lee, CEO, Yuvaa, stated.
