Project Report | Nov 21, 2018
Children's Parliament Program

By S.M. Arasu | Founder Director

Summary

Prime Trust organizes Children’s Parliament Program to empower children in the slums and for the children in our Remedial Schools and the children of our women from Self Help Groups. These parliaments are designed for children between the age of 9 and 17 and encourage them to engage in local, national and international democratic processes. Essentially these children are discussing issues that directly affecting their lives. Through these parliaments we believe that every child should be able to express themselves openly and without fear.

Challenge

It is clear that the children in the slums do not have good access to quality education as their parents are unable to provide them. The children living in vulnerable condition are not raised well and they do not know their rights. The children are forced to discontinue their studies and sent for employment to support their families thereby losing their opportunity. The children pick up bad habits at a very young age

Solution

Through this program we aim to provide an opportunity to acquire leadership qualities, personality development. The children are taught about their rights and they are getting knowledge on the prevailing political system. It is an initiative to make good future citizens.

Long-Term Impact

The long term impact of this program would be to create a potential society who will be assets of our nation.

Updates

Monthly meeting for the children were conducted through our Project Manager. General medical check-up thourgh a medical college was conducted on 10th November 2018 for all the children of our Parliament
