Extension programme organised by the Human Rights Cell of PIM in association with Udupi zilla Kanakadasa Seva Samaja (Regd.)

Child trafficking is a serious problem that is prevalent in India.  It has been reported by the various dependable sources that majority of India’s trafficking problem is internal and those from the most disadvantaged social strata.  It is the children of the poor and most marginalised communities who are often trafficked to be forced into labour.  Lack of awareness among both the children and the parents results in traffickers taking advantage of the situations.  Keeping this problem in mind the Human Rights cell of PIM decided to create awareness among the children of Kuruba community, which happens to be one of the under privileged sections of the society about the child trafficking problem and its prevention methods.  Hence the programme was organised around the central theme “Child Trafficking and Prevention”.  Eighteen students of Human rights cell of PIM, designed the content of programme for the beneficiaries.  A drama was conducted by 5 students replicating the situation of child trafficking and thereby creating awareness about the problem.  The children were shown videos of the different children who were also put in to the problem.  The ways of preventing the problem and the legal solutions available were also explained by the members of human rights cell of PIM to the children of Kuruba community who belong to grade 8th to 10th, studying at Volakadu school.
