As we step into 2024 let us continue this journey of unlocking potential of children. Together, we can ensure that every child has the opportunity to explore, learn, and grow with the help of education.
Why Support CRY’s Academic and Psychosocial Support Centres?
While schools have reopened formally, children are still struggling with their studies. The prolonged gap has led to the loss of learning opportunities and many important life skills for children. Many of them were even forced to drop out of school during this gap and discontinue their education. If not addressed on time this learning crisis can lead to children dropping out of school permanently putting their bright futures at stake.
To address this issue, CRY has set up Academic and Psychosocial Support Centres that are helping children across many states to reconnect to their studies and give them the necessary confidence to go back to school by –
- Conducting support classes using interactive audio-visual platforms to bridge the learning gap and protect children from dropping out of school
- Retaining motivation levels among children through fun and creative activities like storytelling, singing, dancing, etc
- Conducting awareness drives on the importance of education for communities and parents
- Creating awareness about the ill effects of dropping out of school, child marriage, labour, and trafficking
- Forming children’s collectives to build the agency of children to promote their well-being and give them the confidence to pursue their aspirations
