Illiteracy
Illiteracy is viewed as the greatest threat to our children's future, according to a new survey commissioned by TD Waterhouse USA.
The findings released today reveal that a full one-third of all Population, when asked, identified illiteracy (33%) over other pressing social issues such as poverty (24%), healthcare (23%) and the environment (15%).
Gathering accurate numbers on illiteracy is not easy. Not only is it a question of definition, but local political circumstances also take their toll. Illiteracy is not something officials want to advertise and thus the official numbers which are delivered by certain governments are often of a dubious nature.
In 2000, one in five adults aged 15+ was illiterate.
There were about 86 million illiterate adults in India in 2000. If the current trend continues, in 2015 there will be some 200 million illiterate adults.
Child sexual abuse
Until the early 1970's child sexual abuse was thought to be rare, and centered among the poor. Experts now agree that child sexual abuse has always occurred and still exists in all socio-economic groups. Increased public awareness has led to greater reporting; from 1970 to 1990, child sexual abuse reports increased more than other categories of neglect or abuse.1 Despite this gain, child sexual abuse still remains vastly under-reported.
Children and adolescents who have been sexually victimized are at increased risk for HIV infection, unplanned pregnancy and other negative outcomes. Unfortunately, the personal skills needed to prevent sexually-transmitted diseases and unintended pregnancy are exactly those eradicated by sexual abuse. People who work with youth must be aware of the possible connection; sexual abuse prevention must be a component of any program promoting adolescent reproductive and sexual health.
Child Labour
Millions of children in India work – to supplement their family’s income, to sustain themselves or simply because they have no access to schools - compromising on their present and forging themselves an uncertain future. Many of these children continue to be employed in hazardous industries, hotels, ‘dhabas’ and as domestic help, though banned in these sectors.
At Special Kidz we believe that child labour can be removed only if the root causes of why children have to work – like migration, adult employment, no access to quality education - are tackled. Child labour is detrimental to children, denying them the right to be healthy and safe, to nutrition, education and recreation.
Despite the numerous promises and provisions made by the Indian government, the state of many of the country's children continues to be pitiable. Statistics reveal that there are close to 13 million child laborers, about 3 to 5 lakh children are forcibly engaged in prostitution and at least 18 million children live on the streets in India. Coupled with child abuse and poverty figures, the picture is far from pretty. A little help on your part can and will bring these numbers down!
