Dear well-wishers,
Regards from Gram Vikas Trust, Bharuch.
The journey of a poor tribal student for education does not seems to be as easy as the society think. There are numbers of factors or barriers which affect the student to left the school or mark “full stop” on the education. It is really not easy for the children to come out from the orthodox culture of the society towards education. The tribal people are now equipped with the latest technology but they could not able to change their mindset to being educated. They are not able to think about the future and not preparing their children to face the change they will see in the future.
The main obstacle for children is their parents who are not aware/understand the importance of education and do not motivate/support the children to attend school on regular basis, or they do not even sit with them and discuss about the education. The culture of the community is other major reason, which affect the life of the students and with these two major reasons the same condition of the tribal community seen at Jhagadia block, Bharuch district.
Many of the girls and boys do not able to get education because of this mentality, and they have to remain in the same situation in which their parents have suffer. But they do not able to realize that education can change their situation.
Gram Vikas Trust (GVT) tries to break this misconception of the society, and trying to support the children for their better future through education, as this is the only way to change their mindsets. Many girls have been supported by GVT and they could able to change their lives, but still there are numbers of families who still live in the same condition. GVT provide educational support as well as educating the parents to educate the girls.
Let us come together to make some change in the society, let us educate the girls for a better society.
