Child Development

POLIO CAMP

A HAPPY, HEALTHY and creative child whose rights are protected and honoured in a society that is built on respect for dignity, justice and equity for all.

To enable people to take responsibility for the situation of the deprived Indian child and so motivate them to seek resolution through individual and collective action thereby enabling children to realise their full potential To make people discover their potential for action and change

To enable peoples’ collectives and movements encompassing diverse segments, to pledge their particular strengths, working in partnership to secure, protect and honor the rights of India’s children

According to the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Children – that India ratified in 1992 – all children are born with fundamental rights.

• Right to Development – to education, care, leisure, recreation, cultural activities
  • Right to Protection – from exploitation, abuse, neglect
  • Right to Participation – to expression, information, thought, religion

And a right to achieve these dreams. Even though India’s children account for more than one-third of its population, their interests have never been given priority. And their rights have been violated every single day.
