The aim is to develop an evidence based intervention for primary prevention of intimate partner violence in India.

Each of the 6 sessions will be followed by semi-structured interviews with the couple and intervention administrator to gauge acceptance and feasibility. A control group of 20 recently-married husband-wife dyads (who will not receive any intervention) will also be asked to individually complete the survey at two time points . There will be assessment  for feasibility, acceptability, safety and preliminary efficacy of the intervention.
