Bal Mitra Gram: A Model Empowering Children To Take Democratic Actions And Protect Their Rights
Kailash Satyarthi Children's Foundation's Bal Mitra Gram is an internationally recognised model to prevent child exploitation and abuse. Children, supported by the community, understand the challenges of their village and build solutions together. Children elect their Bal Panchayat which is officially recognised by the Gram Panchayat. In a Bal Mitra Gram, there is no child labour, no child marriages, and no child trafficking. Here is how the model is helping children.
