Workshop on Human RIGHTS

By on
Suppose, somebody buys a beautiful gift for you, and you aren't aware about it. What will happen!!! 

Obviously you will not be asking for it even if someone else takes away. This is the scenario in our governance system in our country. Our Cabinet prepares a lot of Acts and provision for the development of the economically backward communities, however, it is not known to these communities. This is because the beneficiaries are not involved in the decision making. And this  kind of negligence is  violation to the fundamental rights of the targeted communities, which is the violation of Human Rights.

Thus, a Networking Forum is organizing a two days state level Human Rights training on 8th and 9th February, 2014 at Bhubaneswar for 50 selected youths of Odisha. They will be working for protection and promotion of Human Rights at their respective places. Extend your supports through valuable suggestions, which will be included in the action plan, for protecting and promoting Human Rights.
Turning compassion into action, and knowledge into light.

The Evidence Lies in Everyday Life Despite the vocabulary of “development” floating around them, tribals continue to depend on the system for survival, not empowerment. Consider these everyday realities: 1. Education without elevation The schools exist, the teachers are paid, the child...

In schools we learnt that we plant trees for the grandchildren. It means we plant trees and our grandchildren enjoy the fruits, sheds, woods etc. That means we grow old and fed away and could not benefit from the recompense. So, the focus is on the grown up and old people. To this extend, the more the elder people work, the more “ changes” will take place in the future.                     But it is opposite in the development area we focus on the old and grown up people by giving a lot of trainings and instruction hoping that they will bring a change in the society. But in reality they are already old enough who starts journey towards their fading way. Thus, they could bear a little and the “ change” is being reduced. On the other hand, if we train and instruct the children and youths, they would bring much more change in the society, because they would be applying it in their day-today-life when they will be grown-up...
