Dear well-wishers,
Regards from Gram Vikas Trust, Bharuch.
As we all are facing the critical times due to covid-19 situation. Almost all the sectors have affected by this critical situation, but slowly all the sectors have started again. But the schools and colleges are still not functioning. Almost all the children, especially the children of primary section and from rural community are the most affected as they have lost almost their one year.
Government are actively focusing on the Home Learning concept, where children can learn at home only with the support of technology and some printed materials at their own, with little support from school teachers. But as we all aware about the situation of rural India, where technology are not that much used, or we can say technology are used for entertainment purpose not for learning. The printed materials are reached with the last child of the village, but there are not any likeminded people who can facilitate the students in understanding it. These are the major problems which GVT is highlighting here, other numerous problems are faced by the rural community in across India.
As discussed in the earlier report, GVT is trying to help the community and specially the children to continue their learning, as we are aware about the upcoming situation, where majority of the rural Indian students are going to drop out from schools or may not be able to remember the previous learning which will increase the irregularity in schools.
GVT is supporting the families, children and schools to cope up with the upcoming situation, by providing some support. We at Bharuch are trying to engage as much people we can in education, from the village only, who can support in managing education in this time. These people are parents, youth, elders, women and other likeminded people who are ready to spend some time with children, and to support children in learning.
The small efforts by the community has able to create a positive and educational environment in the villages, with their innovative ideas and efforts students and teachers are able to linked with each other and are able to learn and teach. We believe that education is the key to success, which is not going to achieve by the singles, it is the collective responsibility.
