Education is empowerment
WHY EDUCATION?
When we have to deal with health care, poverty, population control, unemployment or human rights, there is no better starting point than giving education to children in need. Education not only empowers children to earn a living, but also helps them grow as responsible citizens and global citizens. The right to education, learning and development (emotional, physical and mental) is a fundamental human right of every child under the age of 18 according to the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC). Yet millions of children are deprived of these basic rights for a variety of reasons, including conflict, natural disasters, ethnicity, disability and, most importantly, poverty.
The Right to Education Act (RTE) enacted in 2010 made education free and compulsory for all children from the age of 6 to her 14 years. But even more than a decade after the law was enacted, the learning curve for many children in this country is not stable. Parents’ socioeconomic status and lack of adequate learning in school are barriers that prevent many children from getting an education.
