QUARRY WORKERS CHILDREN EDUCATION PROGRAMME
Child labour is primarily an outcome of poverty and uneven development. In Perecharla and the surrounding quarry locations the children, women, and men are working with hazardous conditions. Only the government efforts could not solve their problem. A holistic development plan should be evolved targeting the children in these families with a long-term objective of improving their standard of living through academic/skill education, awareness promotion activities, and women empowerment.
The primary objective is to withdraw children working in hazardous activity and to rehabilitate them through quality education by providing quality educational materials along with tuition to improvve their educational standards.
There has been a plethora of events for children at SAVE Trust. Few of the activities are listed below:
- The children are receiving good education and orientation.
