HAQ will complete 16 years as a non-profit organisation with a large vision and dream for
realising every right for every child, in 2014.
Having started its work in October 1998 and being formally registered under the Societies
Registration Act in June 1999, HAQ has dedicated itself to the recognition, promotion and
protection of the rights of all children.
HAQ continues to use its Children and Governance programme as a means of ensuring that
child rights occupy an important place on the agenda of Indian Politics, planning and
implementation.
Through its Child Protection programme, HAQ targets those children that are the most
vulnerable and provides them with free legal aid, psychosocial counselling, and also uses
campaigns & capacity building as tools to spread awareness.

CHILDREN AND GOVERNANCE
Budget for Children (BfC)
This was the very first activity that we undertook. HAQ’s BfC (Budgets for Children analysis)
work has been one of its most consistent activities since 2001. It has since expanded into
budget analysis in different states in partnership with local organisations. At present BfC
work is being done in Assam, Delhi and also for the National Budget. The BfC work in Madhya
Pradesh has come to an end.
As with every year HAQ undertook a quick analysis of the Union Budget after the Interim
Budget was presented on 17th
February 2014. It was circulated by email and is uploaded on
our website. We are at present in the process of completing the consolidated report of the
Union Budget for the past 5 years.
This year saw the completion of five year analysis of BfC report for Delhi, Andhra Pradesh (in
partnership with MV Foundation), West Bengal (in partnership with SPAN) and Assam (in
partnership with North Eastern Social Research Centre (NESRC).
Currently HAQ is working on BfC (at the national level, in Delhi. This work is supported by
Child Rights and You. The BfC in Assam has been undertaken with NESRC and was supported
by Terres des Hommes (tdh) Germany. It now plans to enter a new phase of partnership with
NESRC in Nagaland, Meghalaya and Tripura- states where such work has never been
attempted, while continuing BfC in Assam.
Having gained experience at tracking the fund flow of Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA) in the last
phase of BfC work, HAQ chose to track the fund flow and implementation of the centrally
sponsored Integrated Child Protection Scheme (ICPS) and the
implementation of Juvenile Justice. It was decided that for this, two districts
would be selected in each of the states.
In the year 2013, taking the Budget for Children (BfC) work a step further,
Enakshi Ganguly Thukral’s article “Budget for Children” featured in a book
titled “Human Rights and Public Finance”, published by Hart Publishing Co.
West Bengal and Andhra Pradesh
Although the BfC project supported by Ford
Foundation in these two states had come to an
end, the consolidated reports were being
finalized at the time of the last annual
meeting. These reports have since been
published.
A release of the report along with a meeting of
NGOs to share the findings was organised in
Kolkata on 21st June, 2013, at the Academy of Fine Arts (Conference Hall), Kolkata. The

4
organisations decided to form an informal network and continue the work around BfC in
West Bengal.
With the political situation in turmoil over the bifurcation of the state into Telengana and
Andhra Pradesh, MV Foundation said that it was not possible to undertake advocacy on BfC.
Delhi
The Delhi State Budget for the financial year 2013-14 was
presented on the 20th of March, 2013. HAQ did a quick
analysis of the budget and produced a handout. Based on the
poor turnout at the interface organised last year, this year an
attempt was made to contact individual MLAs personally and
meet them. At the same time copies of the budget report were
sent to all the MLAs by post, which were followed up with
individual phone calls.
Unfortunately the response once
again, was very discouraging. While
most MLAs said they were not interested in children’s issues,
some said that given the very short duration of the assembly,
pending elections, they are unable to raise these issues.
HAQ also undertook a BfC analysis from the period 2008-2009 to
2012-2013 on the Delhi State Budget. A consolidated report was
prepared and published and the same was uploaded on HAQ’s
website.
For dissemination of the report, the budget team met and shared
the BfC report with Mr. Sat Prakash Rana, an MLA from Dwarka
and requested him to take up the issue further in the Assembly.
The team also met and presented the key findings of the study to the Chairperson of DCPCR
Mr. Arun Mathur and all the other members of Delhi Commission for the Protection of Child
Rights (DCPCR). The report was also shared with Dr. Kiran Walia (Former Women and Child
Development Minister, Govt. of Delhi), Dr. Harsh Vardhan (MLA and Former Health and
Education Minister, Govt. of Delhi) as well as some other Civil Society Organisations.
Copies of the report were shared with CRY who has distributed it to all its partners and the
network it supports in Delhi. It is expected that these organisations will use the report and
its findings for their own work at the local level.
However, the unstable political situation in Delhi, with elections and the fall of the AAP
government after which a government is yet to be formed, has made it difficult to
undertake any sustained advocacy.

5
Madhya Pradesh
The state budget of Madhya Pradesh was presented on 22nd
March 2013. HAQ, in close partnership with Sanket
Development Group (a Bhopal based organisation) prepared a
quick budget analysis of the State Budget of Madhya Pradesh,
copies of which were printed and disseminated among various
stakeholders and civil society organisations, and those
organisations supported by CRY and the network it supports.
A workshop was also organised on 31st
August 2013 at Hotel
Royal Vilas,
Bhopal in
which civil
society organisations working on child
rights participated.
The findings of the child budget analysis
were also shared with print and electronic
media by Sanket.
However, this initiative in Madhya Pradesh
was discontinued by CRY in December 2013.
Assam
Our longstanding partner for BfC
analysis in Assam has been the North
Eastern Social Research Centre
(NESRC). In June 2013, the HAQ team
visited NESRC and published child
budget analysis of the State Budget
2013-14. This was presented before
various government officials and
departments like the Health
Department, Finance Department,
Department of Social Welfare,
Department of labour, State Child
Protection Society etc.
This was also shared with leading NGOs such as the Assam branch of the Indian Council for
Child Welfare (Guwahati) and the Chairperson of the Assam State Commission for the
Protection of Child Rights (ASCPCR). The analysis was uploaded on HAQ’s website as well.
In November 2013, HAQ and NESRC published the comprehensive BfC report for six years
prepared a detailed child budget analysis of six years. It was released on the 6th
November
2013 at an interface organised at the Pragati Manor in Guwahati. During the interface, the

6
findings of the report were presented through an ‘Audio-visual presentation’, which was also
appreciated by the participants
This was attended by Mr. Akon Bora (Minister,
Department of Social Welfare, Govt. of Assam)
was invited as the chief guest to launch the
report. Mr. Subhas Das (Chief Secretary,
Department of Education, Govt. of Assam), Dr.
Virginius Xaxa (Member, National Advisory
Council), Ms. Lina Das (Member Secretary,
ASCPCR). Representatives of various reputed
NGOs and CWC members participated in this
interface and shared their views on the findings
of the analysis. While appreciating HAQ’s and
NESRC’s efforts, a strong need for such kind of analysis was
voiced by the participants as well as guests during the interface.
The AV and the report have been circulated to the civil. The
interface was covered by the media.
The report was shared with some key government officials. A
copy of the report was also given to Mr. Bhubaneswar Kalita (MP,
Rajya Sabha).
Parliamentary Watch
HAQ has been undertaking analysis of the parliamentary
questions and debates for over 10 years. For several years, a
series- Says a Child..Who Speaks for my Rights was published?
However, although it was academically a good exercise and
often appreciated, over the years we felt that the NGOs and
parliamentarians were not using the reports in the way we
had anticipated.
At the same time, monitoring the parliament is critical to
understanding children and governance and holding elected
members accountable. Therefore we have decided to
continue with the analysis, but make a very short analysis that is circulated only through the
internet.
An analysis of the child focused questions raised in all the sessions of both Lok Sabha and
Rajya Sabha during the year 2012 was undertaken and this circulated by email and uploaded
on HAQ’s website in September 2013.

7
Since January 2014, HAQ is working as a consultant to Save the Children, India to, analyse
questions and answers related to Reproductive, Maternal, Newborn ,Child and Adolescent
Health (RMNCH+A), which were raised by legislators in Parliament sessions as well as in the
legislative assemblies in Uttar Pradesh and Bihar State Assemblies.
Preventing Child Marriage through Strengthening Governance Systems
The implementation of a project on prevention of child marriage through the strengthening
of existing governance systems in two states – West Bengal (WB) and Andhra Pradesh (AP)
has continued. The project is being implemented with partner organisations in the states-
Jabala in WB and MV Foundation (MVF) in AP. This project is jointly supported by the
MacArthur Foundation and the Ford Foundation.
Although the project is being implemented in selected 24 Gram Panchayats in 2 districts each
of the two states, there has been impact seen beyond the project area. Because of the wider
impact of the project in creation of awareness and prevention of child marriages,
government officials have requested the project team to give inputs outside the project area
in both the states.
There has been increased involvement of the stakeholders from the government systems in
preventing child marriages and more members in the community are joining the activities of
the project. As a result review meetings on child marriage situation are being conducted by
government officials and community level committees. Adolescent Girls Groups and male
youth groups have become stronger in taking initiative by becoming the source of
information on possible child marriages. The Child Protection Committees or Village Level
Child Marriage Prohibition Committees are equally important sources for information on
possible child marriages. Action is taken on getting information of possible cases of child
marriage and other child rights violations jointly by the child protection committees at the
village and block levels, other community members, government officials and the project
team. The project has been able to stop several child marriages from taking place.
Recognising that prevention of child marriage is closely connected with other violations of
child rights and hence a comprehensive approach needs to be adopted, during the meetings
with various stakeholders other issues such as school dropouts, child trafficking, falling sex
ratio, supply of nutrition in the Integrated Child Development Services Scheme to the
adolescent girls and seasonal child labour, health cards and scholarships, etc. are the other
issues which are also taken up.
One of the biggest successes of the project has been the extent to which it has come to be
recognised that child marriage must be prevented not just because it is a social evil that
affects the health of girls, but because it is a violation of the right to protection of children
and a criminal act.
This is not to say that all child marriages in the project areas could be prevented. Indeed,
many of the parents who agreed to not marry their girls in presence of the government
official to postpone or cancel the child marriage have found out ways to perform the child
marriage in following days. At times, it was done within 24 hours without the knowledge of

8
even the neighborhood. There is still a long way to go before the governance system and the
community become self sufficient to deal with child marriage.
The following are some of the highlights of the activities of the last year:
Sharing Experience and Learning meeting:
The ‘Sharing of Experience and Learning’ (25-26 July) was organised in New Delhi. It brought
together the entire team from the two states.
This was a wonderful experience for the field team to not just be able to showcase their
work, but to also learn about the work in the other state.
Mid Project Evaluation
Leher, NGO (Co-Founded by Nicole Rangel and Kajol Menon) was engaged for the Mid
Project Evaluation as they have a strong background in child protection. Followed by the
field visits, a de-briefing meeting was organised with both of the partner NGOs to share a
draft of the Evaluation Report. This has enabled us to identify activities for the remaining project
period.
Film on Project work
During the partners meeting in July 25-26, 2013, it was suggested that HAQ make a film on
the project highlighting the importance and success of
convergence of all stakeholders in prevention on child
marriage.
A film titled, ‘Come Together’, was scripted and directed by
Mr. Avijit Dutt (a senior Director and Actor).
All the actors of the film are from in and around the village,
where a film had never been shot before, but they are all
close to the issue. Several of them are persons who work
on preventing child marriages in their area, in their official capacity or as members of the
community. It is important that the role of the two girls, one who is getting married and the
one who works to stop it are both active members of the adolescent girls group of the
Sharing Experience and Learning meeting with project teams and a representative from MacArthur

9
school; the woman who plays the role of the mother of one of the girls was married very
young and is today a Panchayat member and a strong ally of our project; the role of the
father of the bride is played by the Secretary of the school where the girls study and a
supporter of the adolescent girls group and the initiative they take to prevent child
marriages. It is almost coincidental that all the women characters in the film were child
brides themselves, and one of them was deserted as a young girl with two children to bring
up. It is significant that a just a few days before the shooting of the film, the girls true to the
characters they have played in the film, were involved in stopping the marriage of one of
their class-mates along with other members of the group.
Other Notable Achievements:
The HAQ team accompanied by the State Coordinator of MVF visited the joint initiative
of UNICEF and Government Karnataka for addressing child marriage in Raichur District of
Karnataka. This programme has been running for a longer period and has a similar
strategy to the current project by HAQ and its partners.
Dasra has reviewed 300 non-profits to identify 10 promising organisations committed to
ending this practice in India and which, with philanthropic investment can create impact
at scale. HAQ is one of them.
The Kiawah Trust, U.K along with Dasra had visited HAQ under their The Dasra Girls
Alliance, a five-year initiative in collaboration with USAID. A few other agencies have also
approached HAQ to understand the child marriage and child protection scenario in India
and also to understand the project itself. There has been constant learning and exchange
on this issue.
HAQ featured as one of the case studies in the report ‘Protecting the Girl Child: using
the law to end child, early and forced marriage and related human rights violations’,
by Equality Now, UK (May 2013).
The project experience was submitted to an initiative of Ministry of Women and Child
Development and UNICEF in documenting best practices on child protection in general
and ICPS in particular. The document is not public as yet.
Several meetings around gender and evaluation, adolescent girls and child marriage
were attended by HAQ and often accompanied by presentations on the project.
The issue of child marriage was included as a chapter in the school text books in AP, with
a story from the project villages.
Child Marriage as an issue was included in the panchayat elections in WB and a Self
Declaration for protecting Child Rights was ensured from the contestant for the post of
Gram Panchayat Sarpanch in AP.
There is a dedicated page on HAQ’s website which is still being developed. Realising the
importance of social media, a Facebook page ‘Ending Child Marriage: Learning Together
and Going Ahead’ has also been started.

Promotion and Protection of Rights of Children in the Mining Sector
There are many children across India growing up in
and around the mining areas. Mining affects their lives
directly or indirectly. It is these children that this
project is about. We refer to them as the Mining
Children. Following the research done for a study
titled ‘India’s childhood in the Pits’- A Report on the
Impacts of Mining on Children in India which was
published in 2010, follow-up action was initiated with
the support of Terre des Hommes (Germany). This
project, being undertaken in partnership with SAMATA
based in Vishakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh, began in
2012. It lays emphasis on bringing together child rights organisations along with those
organisations which work on mining to help them gain knowledge, build skills required to
work on the issue through IEC materials, trainings, networking and advocacy. The project
will be carried out in 6 states over a period of 3 years. A Community Resource Guide on
Children and Mining has been prepared which is being used to conduct trainings.
The project was started in April 2012. In the last year two state-level Training of Trainers have
been organised at Angul in Odisha and Chiabasa in Jharkhand. Regional trainings were also
organised at Jharsuguda in Odisha, Kolar in Karnataka and in Jharkhand the trainings were
conducted at Ghatsila and Katras. This was followed by two field visits were undertaken in
Odisha and Jharkhand.
One round table conference was organised in Karnataka. Contacts have been established
with child rights organisations that can be a part of this project.
Also, two state-level round table conferences in the states of Odisha and Jharkhand with key
stake holders have been planned for May 2014.
Children’s Manifesto
HAQ drafted a children’s manifesto which it shared with all
the major networks and organisations, several of whom
came on board to jointly present the manifesto.
This manifesto was shared with all major political parties.
POLICY AND LAW ADVOCACY
National Policy for Children (member of the
drafting group)
On 26 April 2013 the Government of India notified the
National Policy for Children. Enakshi Ganguly was a member
of the drafting committee that had been set up by the
government.

11
Jammu and Kashmir Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children Act),
2013, Rules
In 2013, Bharti Ali was part of the Jammu and Kashmir Juvenile Justice Rules Drafting
Committee. On 24th
March 2014, the rules were notified.
Active Participation in Judicial Forums
Bharti Ali continues to be member of the Delhi State Legal Services Authority (DSLSA) for the
second term. She has been drawing attention of the DSLSA on issues concerning victim
compensation for child survivors of sexual abuse and child-friendliness of the POCSO Courts.
This has helped expedite the victim compensation process in the cases dealt by HAQ. A
revised victim compensation scheme has been formulated by DSLSA, which also applies to
victims of child sexual abuse, who otherwise had to wait for compensation until the
concerned Court gave an order in this regard. This has also helped the survivors in many of
the cases being dealt by HAQ.
As part of the Supervision Committee for Observation Homes, complaints or distress calls
from aggrieved parents/guardians continue to be received and addressed.
Monitoring and strengthening implementation of child justice systems
through Strategic Litigation
Strategic litigation is now a well established component of HAQ’s work on monitoring and
strengthening implementation of juvenile justice and child justice in India. Experience with
legal aid and counselling has led to a series of litigation to draw attention to anomalies in
justice delivery and implementation of laws relating to children.
Last year, HAQ was able to get some positive results important through judgements
pronounced by the Supreme Court and the Delhi High Court in cases where HAQ had
intervened.
The Supreme Court of India upheld the constitutional validity of the JJ Act in both Salil Bali
vs. Union of India [WP (C) NO. 10 OF 2013] and Subramaniam Swamy vs. Union of India
[Special Leave Petition (Crl.) No. 1953 of 2013] and children have been protected from being
treated as adult criminals on the basis of gravity of offences committed by them.
The confusion caused by multiplicity of laws on registration and licensing of orphanages
stands resolved in Delhi and all state governments can use the judgement in WP (C)
9590/2009 to stop using laws other than the JJ Act for purposes of recognition and
registration of institutions keeping children in need of care and protection and children in
conflict with the law. HAQ was an intervener in this case as a result of its petition seeking
compliance by Arya Anathalaya and its sister institutions on child protection standards after
reports of child sexual abuse.

12
Some other litigation too has led to positive actions on different fronts. For example,
members of HAQ’s child protection team have been assisting the NCPCR in carrying out
inspections of homes for children in the NCT of Delhi [WP (Crl) 694/2012]. As part of orders
of the High Court of Delhi in WP (C) 8889/2011, team members from HAQ have been
assisting the NCPCR in carrying out visits to the jails and to homes for children in the NCT of
Delhi.
At the same time, HAQ has also been litigating for a transparent and proper procedure for
selection of chairperson and members to the NCPCR. After a five year long legal battle in the
High Court of Delhi and an ongoing case in the Supreme Court of India the Ministry of
Women and Child Development has finally revised the rules governing the NCPCR
elaborating on the eligibility criteria and ensuring a public advertisement inviting
applications from interested persons. However, given the inadequacy of the amended rules
in terms of setting out the procedure for determining eminence and ability of the candidates
and for making the process more transparent, HAQ, along with some other organisations, is
contemplating further litigation.
There are fourteen cases that HAQ has filed or intervened in the High Court of Delhi and the
Supreme Court of India.
Cases in the Supreme Court of India or Delhi High Court as of March 2014 include:

CHILD PROTECTION
Legal Aid, Rehabilitation Support and Counselling
HAQ continues its work of providing psychosocial support to children in conflict with law and
child victims of sexual abuse. Counsellors from HAQ’s child protection team make weekly
visits to both the Juvenile Justice Boards, where cases of children in conflict with the law
requiring counselling are marked to them through the orders of the Board. Counselling
sessions are taken with the overall aim of rehabilitation. Parents/guardians of the children
are met as often as possible, in order to ensure that the progress is made even when the
child returns to his/her home environment. HAQ no longer needs to provide legal support to
these children, as there is now an adequate presence of legal aid lawyers present at both
the Juvenile Justice Boards.
However, HAQ continues with its legal aid and counselling support to those children who are
victims of violence, sexual abuse and exploitation. Our intervention is no longer contained to
just legal aid and counselling, as there was the need to go one step further and help children
and their families’ access emergency medical attention, monetary compensation and long
term educational support. Timely assistance and support helps in healing and rehabilitation
of children.

Support to Survivors of Child Sexual Abuse
HAQ continues its partnership with Centre to Secure Justice (CSJ) started in March 2013,
with the aim of making holistic justice more accessible and effective, for those who are
victims of sexual abuse. Through this partnership HAQ has been providing psychological
counselling as well as other forms of support to children who are survivors of sexual assault,
and their families. Legal aid and representation is provided by CSJ. However, HAQ’s
collaboration with CSJ is limited to cases of child rape in the South District.
Apart from this, HAQ also takes up cases from other parts of Delhi and cases where boys are
victimized. These cases come to us through referrals from the Child Welfare Committees,
NGOs and concerned individuals, or sometimes the families of the victims approach HAQ
directly.
Support Group of Parents of Survivors of CSA
In order to have effective psychological and social rehabilitation, we provide counselling and
support, not only for the children, but also to their families to help the families deal with the
emotional trauma. In December 2013 HAQ facilitated the setting up of a support group of
parents whose children have been sexually abused. The families responded positively to this
idea. Subsequently two meetings have been held in HAQ’s office. The group is still
unstructured and at a nascent stage.

Note: The figures in the above tables reflect only the fresh cases taken up by HAQ in the different
years. Every year there is also a backlog of cases being followed up from the previous years.
*In some cases, we have provided the children with counselling as well as legal aid and economic
support. Although this leads to double counting in some cases, in effect each service provided is
distinct and through staff specializing in different areas.

Technical Support to Project on Role of Fathers in Child Protection for CHSJ
HAQ continues its partnership with Centre for Health and Social Justice (CHSJ)’s project
titled "Fathers Care". This project started with CHSJ in April 2012 and it will continue till
December 2014. The project is aimed at building a campaign on exploring the role of men as
fathers in protecting child rights. HAQ facilitated the Review workshop of the project in
Bhopal and Lucknow in May 2013. In October 2013, HAQ conducted a Capacity Building
workshop in Ranchi and also participated in a Forum to Engage Men (FEM) in December
2013. HAQ also participated in a two day review meeting on the ‘Fathers Care Campaign’ in
March 2014. HAQ is also part of the organizing committee of the 2nd
‘MenEngage Global
Symposium 2014: Men and Boys for Gender Justice’, to be held in November 2014.
Life Skills Training and other interventions for Rehabilitation of girls in Nirmal
Chhaya- a State run children’s home in Delhi
Since the year 2009, HAQ: Centre for Child Rights has continued its involvement with Nirmal
Chhaya home for girls. Since September 2012, the visits have been made on a bi-monthly
basis, by HAQ’s in house counsellor and a consultant. Going one step further, in June 2013, a
12 day Summer Programme was conducted at the home, which focused on carrying forward
our ongoing sessions on hygiene, having art and play sessions and
building general awareness.
Given the large number of children in the home, there is always a
mix of different groups such as different ages, girls who are
pregnant, runaways and children with special needs. Our
interaction with these girls, through informal counselling and group
interactions, aims to reduce any sense of alienation they might
feel, as well as to put them at ease.
Newcomers to the home often feel
unable to adjust to the largely
indifferent nature of the home, and
find it hard to make friends. We try and
get them involved in our activities, and make them feel
welcome.
There are also children in the age group of 0-5 years and at the
current time a majority of the children in this age group are in
the special needs category, and have disabilities ranging from
speech and hearing impairments to neurological and
developmental disorders. However, we still try and get as many
as we can to participate in our activities, in order to provide them with stimulation. Water
based activities, and colouring are some areas where the small children are effectively
involved.
Recreational activities using art, games continued as usual. In order to provide the girls with
a constructive use of their time and help them create a warmer living atmosphere for

17
themselves, we initiated an Art Project .The girls chose what they would like to see around
them, came up with their own designs and started to paint the same with great enthusiasm.
Involving the other girls, one of the designs of a ‘tree man’ was selected and painted on one
of the walls in the courtyard, next to the dining hall.
While recreational activities will continue to remain an integral part of our Nirmal Chayya
Programme, we have sensed the need to focus our work on behaviour change and self –
development. The staff has also showed their appreciation towards our constant efforts and
their involvement in activities helps to improve their relationship with the girls, and brings
fresh vigour to the activities.
Life-skill education
Our life skills’ training with the girls in the age group of 14-18 years continues and the
Intervention this year was focused on Hygiene. A curriculum was created which focused on
the concept of microbes, vector transmission, and good habits like hand washing and
scrubbing. Using intensive sessions, recaps, prominently displaying aids related to hand
washing and organizing plays in the home on hygiene, we helped girls understand the
various dimensions of hygiene.
Academic Programme
The Academic Programme started in October 2013 in
order to facilitate the crucial need for support to
children dealing with the formal and demanding
education system. The garnered staff support and a
group of volunteers were organised to help teach the
girls. More than 50 girls in the home from a total of 70
joined in.
The programme resumed again on 25th
Jan i.e. the
second quarter, with a fresh intake of volunteers. A
continual stress on conceptual clarity, understanding
the language of exam questions, linking themes for better understanding, motivating girls to
mark difficult areas, giving home tasks, getting in sample papers were some ways in which
academic support was offered.
Our visits are always eagerly awaited and many girls have come to see us as a support
system, since we provide them with a forum where they can discuss with us, any issues that
they face.

TRAINING AND CAPACITY BUILDING
HAQ is regularly called by government agencies, judicial academies, police and NGOs to
undertake training on child rights issues and laws concerning children. In the reporting
period, 83 trainings have been conducted on child rights, child trafficking, child protection,
juvenile justice, etc. for law enforcement officials, members of the judiciary, civil society
groups and communities associated with various NGOs.
Police Training
HAQ undertakes police trainings at the Police Station level in the Outer District as well as
North West District in Delhi on Mondays and Fridays. This is part of the initiative of the Delhi
Police to conduct in-service and ongoing capacity building and sensitisation of all its police
personnel on laws concerning children.
In the month of February 2014, HAQ organised a 2 day training with Juvenile Welfare
Officers of North West Police Stations, on the Juvenile Justice ( Care and Protection Act)
2000, and Protection of Children against Sexual Offenses Act 2012.
Training on Child Trafficking with Child Fund India
In the year 2013, HAQ engaged with Child Fund India on strengthening and capacity building
of Police officials and local advocates on the issue of child trafficking in Rajasthan and
Gujarat. HAQ has been working as consultant in these two states and conducted training
sessions with Police officials and advocates on the issue of child trafficking and their roles in
countering this rapidly increasing offence. As per the project requirement, HAQ’s role was to
conduct the trainings which had to be organised by Child Fund India at Udaipur in Rajasthan
and at Himmatnagar in Gujarat. During the last one year, HAQ conducted three police
trainings and four trainings with advocates of Udaipur Bar Association. Similarly, four Police
trainings have been conducted at Himmatnagar, Gujarat and four trainings have been
conducted with the advocates of Sabarkantha District Bar Association. Apart from these
trainings, in the month of June, HAQ also facilitated a one day meeting with all the
stakeholders in combating child trafficking at Udaipur. In addition to these trainings, HAQ

19
also prepared two separate user manuals on laws and provisions in order to combat child
trafficking. These manuals were specially designed for Police Officials and Advocates.
Orientation on Child Protection for CRY Staff and Partners
HAQ has been asked by CRY to provide orientation on child protection in general and
Integrated Child Protection Scheme in particular. Three such orientations have taken place
so far- for CRY northern region partners, Delhi partners and for CRY staff. Bharti Ali has been
undertaking these orientations.
Budget for Children Training for Administrators in Sri Lanka
HAQ was invited by Save the Children, Sri Lanka office to
undertake the training of provincial level administrators of the
Southern Province in Sri Lanka. The main purpose of the
training was to support the government officials to understand
the concept of BfC in the context of the provincial budget and
how to undertake BfC and their role as bureaucrats in taking
forward the agenda for children using BfC. The training took
place 11-13 of December in Matara and was attended by about
20 provincial administrators.
Developing training packages for different stakeholders to meet the growing
demand for training on child protection across the country
Two films were developed by HAQ for training purposes – one on the law dealing with
sexual offences against children (the POCSO Act) and the other dealing with the Juvenile
Justice Act. The films are in Hindi and have been tested and used in a few police trainings
held in 2014. They have also been put up on HAQ’s website. These films form part of a
series titled “Hastakshep”. HAQ plans to develop more films covering other child
protection issues and laws in the future, as part of the same series.
On 7 March 2014, at a programme organised by the Department of Personnel and
Training along with some other Ministries to mark the occasion of the International
Women’s Day, excerpts from the film on POCSO Act were shown to an audience of 500
women employees of the Central Government. Due to shortage of time, the entire film
could not be shown, but on demand from the audience, HAQ shared the weblink
through which they could access it.
Feedback received from people who have watched the two films is very encouraging.
While the film on the JJ Act is an animation, the other is a narration interspersed with
a set of interviews of key stakeholders. There is now a demand for an animation on the
POCSO Act as well.
The Special Police Unit for Women and Children is developing a new training module for
police training on laws relating to children. HAQ was asked to share all the training

20
materials it has developed so far and was given the responsibility to put together
training aids and materials such as films and FAQs on the POCSO Act as well as the JJ Act.
This gives HAQ an opportunity to make the two films part of an institutionalised module.
The FAQs will be based on solved case-studies, which will touch both the substantive
aspects of the law and the procedural aspects. The films and the FAQs will form a
comprehensive training package on the two laws.
HAQ has also been asked by the Lal Bahadur Shastri National Academy of Administration
to develop a training module on child rights for members of Civil Services in India. This
gives HAQ yet another opportunity to get the two films prescribed as part of the
curriculum.
CAMPAIGNS AND NETWORKS
Member of the Working Group on Human Rights to India and the UN
HAQ is a founding member of WGHR. Over
the last two years WGHR has been
undertaking trainings on the Universal
Periodic Review process and HAQ has been
part of some of the trainings. The last
training was in Chandigarh from 17th
to
19th
February 2014 where Enakshi Ganguly
conducted some of the sessions along with
other members of WGHR.
HAQ also contributed to the WGHR report
on ‘Human Rights in India: Status Report
2013’, by writing the child rights Section.
SUBMISSION OF SHADOW REPORT TO THE UN COMMITTEE ON THE
RIGHTS OF THE CHILD
HAQ Centre for Child Rights had submitted a shadow report to the UN Committee on the
Rights of the Child on of behalf the 20 BS CRC Collective (20 Balance Sheet (BS) Collective
was formed to undertake a review of the implementation of the UN Convention on the
Rights of the Child and consists of about 173 organisations and collectives from across
India).
The pre-session for the review of the government’s report was held on 10 October 2013.
Enakshi Ganguly represented HAQ as well as the collective and made an oral submission to
the Committee.

MISCELLANEOUS
The South Asian Report on the Child-Friendliness of Governments
In September 2013, The South Asian Report on the Child-
Friendliness of Governments was published. This report
was published jointly by HAQ, Save the Children, Terres
des Hommes (Germany), Plan International and Child
Rights and You (CRY). It was conceptualized and designed
as a tool by which governments in the region could assess
their own performance. It was inspired by HAQ’s child
rights index.
The Report focuses on the efforts of Governments, as
primary responsibility for the realization of children’s
rights lies with the state. It also covers key aspects of
government child- friendliness. Copies of the report have
been sent to key government departments and ministries
in India and the South Asian countries. The report was
released in Sri Lanka by the President in December 2013.
Study on Child Labour in India
In October 2012, HAQ undertook a study on Child Labour in India, supported by MISEREOR.
The objective of the study was to show the current situation of child labourers in India and
effective approaches to fight the same. Project sites visited to carry out the study were in the
states of Uttar Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Odisha, Goa and the Union Territory of Delhi. This study
was completed in September 2013.
Vision, Mission and Mandate Document for Department for Child Rights
HAQ has been asked to develop the Vision, Mission and Mandate Document for the newly
formed Department for Child Rights, Government of Rajasthan and putting together a status
report on the situation of children in the state.
SEMINARS, CONFERENCES AND WORKSHOPS ORGANISED BY HAQ
Report on International Colloquium on Juvenile Justice
The International Colloquium on Juvenile Justice was held between
16-18 April 2013, in New Delhi. It has been the first of its kind in
India and was inaugurated by Hon’ble Mr. Justice Altamas Kabir, the
then Chief Justice of India. The Colloquium enlisted participation of
80 people from 14 countries representing statutory bodies,
academics, lawyers and practitioners. Experiences shared by
participants from UK, USA, South Africa, Australia, Phillipines etc.
helped in looking at critical areas of concern relating to sentencing

22
policies vis-à-vis juvenile offenders, administration of juvenile justice, rights of juvenile
offenders vs. rights of victims, different models of rehabilitation. The report has proved
useful in charting the course of national debate on juvenile justice.
Institutionalised Children: A Seminar on Standards of Care and Mental Health
A report on the colloquium was published in December 2013, compiled by HAQ with support
from CORDAID. It was shared with all the participants and is also available on our website.

and Mental Health organised by Udayan Care. The Seminar brought together more than 200
participants from 12 countries and over 20 different States within India, representing
governmental bodies working on child protection, civil society at the international and
national level, academia, media and practitioners working in institutions.
As a precursor to the Seminar, to bring on board the experiences of children who are in
institutions or have lived in them in the past, HAQ conducted a consultation with 18 young
adults raised in 6 different Delhi based institutions on the 22nd February 2014. The
consultation culminated in two vibrant canvasses, which were displayed during the Seminar.
