World Record Single Largest Training on Child Safeguarding
The role of a teacher in shaping a student cannot be understated. Recognizing that the future of our country is taking shape inside the classrooms, CII-Young Indians collaborated with Samagra Shiksha Abhiyan to conduct the world’s largest “Children Safeguarding Training” at Srinivasapura, Kolar with 1336 Teachers.
“Most of us read newspaper reports of children being abused. It leaves us angry. At Young Indians, we decided we needed to Play A Part. The teachers trained will ensure that all children in Srinivasapura are educated on how they could safeguard themselves”, shared Ajith George, Co-Chair Young Indians Bengaluru.
The event saw 1400 teachers become students with them attentively writing notes and also asking questions.
