Challenge

Enable around 400 children of migrant labourers to continue their education through supplementary education and nutrition support in 10 slums and outskirts of Bangalore city. The evening learning centres offer safe spaces, encouraging girls and boys, first-generation learners, to focus on their education and self-betterment despite their very disadvantaged backgrounds. Nutritious snacks support the children's focus and physical development.

Solution

The learning and activity centres offer children safe spaces to congregate in the evening, to study under the guidance of a suitable teacher. Nutritious snacks improve their health and ability to focus on academics. Training in life skills enhances the children's development. Recreational activities, holiday camps and celebrations bring life and joy into their drab childhoods. Child rights training ensures that children and adults are sensitised, promoting transformation in the slums.

Long-Term Impact

Offering supervised supplementary education and nutrition to migrant children in Bangalore, encourages them to persevere and complete their formal schooling. This becomes a platform on which they can build further. Life skills and child rights training, extracurricular activities and counselling, support the integral development of the children. They are thus saved from the perils of child labour and child marriage, breaking the vicious cycle of poverty and illiteracy in their generation.
