Domestic Child Labour

Education : BSW , MSW

With HARD since : 7 Years CTHAPTAP project Samisthi SAGP

The Start ! Work with Child Labour projects Started an youth lead organization called Students for Child Rights (SCR)

to eradicate domestic child labour Through SCR, we did rescue operations to help the children at risk The organization got good response, with wide publicity and open support

by a national media (ndtv) and a local channel (Tv9), many youth volunteers started to join the campaign. In less than a year, we had more than 2000 volunteers joining the campaign

As the required amendment was made .i.e. including domestic child labour into the 1986 child labour prohibition and regulation act, the campaign slowly has become dormant

The campaign was culminated in 2007 by organizing a National Conference on Domestic Child Labour. The conference was organized with support of Oxfam India, Hyderabad office. Around 200 students from 40 reputed institutions had attended the conference. The conference emphasized the utilization of the amendments and the key stake holders responsible for its successful implementation.

Facilitation

After gaining confidence through many successful campaigns I did, I started involving with smaller groups of young people and facilitated them to work on key issues . I was closely associated with 6 youth organizations / NGOs.

One of the youth organizations, I was associated was Vridhi Foundation, a group of young people motivated to work for the environment development but were confused on the specific issues to take up. Here I was instrumental in helping the group choose to work on Water Harvesting.

Water Hyderabad

Water Hyderabad is a initiative by a group of youth organizations to promote water harvesting in the city of Hyderabad.

Participation at Global Level Besides my active participation at local level, I actively involved with

several youth movements and organizations globally I am one of the founding member and lone participant from India to
