Visitors must record their details and wear an ID card and photographs cannot be taken without consent. It targets the general public and concerned organizations associated with Child Clubs, Youth Clubs, Schools, local government agencies and other stakeholders by organizing various meetings and trainings. The activities happen in different areas in close coordination with School Management Committees, teachers and guardian organizations.
