Development and Participation of the

Who we are?

Our belief

Who we are?

A child is on the streets not by choice but by

compulsion. Push and pull factors like poverty,

urbanization, abusive environment, aspirations are responsible for their

condition

30

Who we are?

CHETNA has developed a participatory approach in which children are the protagonists of their learning process. Through education, recreational activities, counseling and collective projects children themselves develop an understanding of their rights and opportunities. Our programmes have been designed in a manner to match their needs and their perceptions. Correspondingly CHETNA acts as a channel to sensitize stakeholders in order to involve the entire community in our projects.

Our approach

30

Who we are?

CHETNA ensures children’s participation. The children with whom we work have designed programs and

activities of CHETNA base on their needs and perception.

With us, children are the protagonist, and we are the

catalysts
