Children's Parliament for children live in slums
By S.M. Arasu | Founder Director
Summary
This program aims to inculcate leadership qualities among the children of Remedial schools run by Prime Trust and from our Self-Help Group members. These parliaments are designed for children between the age of 9 and 14 and encourage them to engage in local, national and international democratic processes. Essentially these children are discussing issues that directly affecting their lives. Through these parliaments we believe that every child should be able to express themselves openly and without fear.
Challenge
The children in the slums do not have good access to quality education as their parents are unable to provide them. The children living in vulnerable condition are not raised well and they do not know their rights. The children are forced to discontinue their studies and sent for employment to support their families thereby losing their opportunity. The ambiance in their area make the children to pick up bad habits.
Solution

The children are given information on the political system in India, about the environment. This program helps the children to acquire holistic development.
