Trafficking usually stands at the center of all activities relating to child abuse and exploitation. A need exists to introduce effective legal regime, enforcement and preventive mechanism.
Thousands of women and children are trafficked every day. Within the overall profile of trafficking in South Asia, India is a country of both transit and destination. There is a considerable degree of internal trafficking as well as some trafficking from India to Gulf States and to South East Asia. Sale of children and their movement across the state borders takes place within the country too. In other words, while there is movement of children through procurement and sale from one country to another, with India being both a supplier as well as a “consumer”, there is internal “movement” of children within the country itself - one town to another, one district to another and one state to another. It is undertaken in an organised manner, by organised syndicates or by individuals, and sometimes informal groups. Relatives and parents are part of this as well.

Juvenile Delinquency - Definition, Meaning, Examples, Crimes and offensive be...Md.Azizul hakim Anik
A juvenile delinquent is a person who has not yet reached the age of maturity, and whose behavior has been labeled delinquent by a court.
It was William Coxson who in 1484, used the term ‘delinquent’ to describe a person found guilty of customary offence. In simpler words it may be said that delinquency is a form of behavior or rather misbehavior or deviation from the generally accepted norms of conduct in the society.
This powerpoint presentation offers an overview of the Human Trafficking problem and how medical professionals can intervene and become actively engaged.
HAQ: Centre for Child Rights had undertaken a comprehensive study on Child Trafficking in 2001 for terre des hommes (Germany) and this was the basis of the starting of a national Campaign- the Campaign against Child Trafficking (CACT). It was formally launched on 12 December 2001 in Delhi and has chapters in 13 states across the country. This campaign has now been revived with the help of Krishna Rao Foundation and iPartner India
As a follow-up to the previous report, HAQ: Centre for Child Rights in partnership with CACT partners from across the state have come out with a report after a gap of 16 years.

Law Enforcement, a challenge in cases of child abuse.Nilendra Kumar
Any meaningful action to reduce the cases of child abuse would come about only with effective law enforcement and award suitable punishment to the offenders. This policy has different dimensions that require a serious effort.
Human Trafficking in India and various laws prevailing in India dealing with indian legislations and telling about the people various rights and creating awareness in the society. This presentation basically deals with all aspects relating to human trafficking in India.
This study is the publication of HAQ: Centre for Child Rights and Counsel to Secure Justice, funded by Human Dignity Foundation.
Ultimately, the Study’s content comes from the powerful stories of our clients (children who have suffered sexual abuse and their families) and the experiences of HAQ/CSJ staff who work closely with them.

This interactive document aims to encourage an in-depth and broad-based exploration of the links and synergies between the Global Goals for Sustainable Development and the Convention on the Rights of the Child.
It complements the 2-page document produced by UNICEF in January 2016 which presents a preliminary mapping of the current priority Global Goals indicators for children against the nine clusters of rights of the Convention on the Rights of the Child.
This detailed, interactive mapping aims to reinforce, but also to move beyond, the more obvious links between the Global Goals and the Convention - such as in the areas of health, education and violence. It assumes that all of the Global Goals are relevant for children, not only those which specifically refer to children. For example, Goal 9 (Build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization and foster innovation) corresponds – amongst other things - to Article 29.1(a) and (e) of the Convention (education of the child shall be directed to the development of the child’s personality, talents and mental and physical abilities to their fullest potential and the development of respect for the natural environment), which is seen as essential to the fostering of innovation. Children have the right to directly engage in achieving the Global Goal targets, in terms of claiming their rights now, as children, as well as preparing themselves to take on more complex responsibilities as they grow older. A child who is 4 years old in 2016 will attain adulthood by 2030. Thus the distinction between child- and adult-specific Goals is very fluid.

Child sexual abuse is an abhorrent phenomenon which occurs globally. Of focus in this report, are the legislative and procedural responses of four common law countries (namely India, Australia, New Zealand and the United Kingdom) in the face of these heinous crimes. The protection of child rights takes a number of different forms across these common law countries and this reports aims to provide a summary of the current laws in operation dealing with child sex offences, by comparing and contrasting the position of India with those of Australia, New Zealand and the United Kingdom. By outlining the current legal mechanisms in operation across these nations we hope to provide our partner organization (HAQ) with a substantive understanding of areas in which law reform could be considered by India and its Parliament. In our discussion we aim not only to provide information on laws and legal procedures currently operating in the specified nations, but also deliver an analysis of these mechanisms including their strengths and weaknesses. It is through this that we hope to inform discussions on law reform in India.

Trafficking of women and children is one of the gravest organized crimes, extending beyond boundaries and jurisdictions. Combating and preventing human trafficking requires a holistic approach by all stakeholders and integrated action on prevention, protection and prosecution.
Keeping this philosophy in mind, Project IND/S16 of the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime, which is a joint initiative of UNODC and the Government of India and funded by the US Government, was launched in April 2006 in India. This project is focused on “Strengthening the law enforcement response in India against trafficking in persons, through training and capacity building”. The major activities in the project are training of police officials and prosecutors, setting up integrated Anti Human Trafficking Units, establishing networks among law enforcement agencies and civil society partners as well as developing appropriate tools including Protocols, Manuals, Standard Operating Procedures (SOP), Compendiums and other training aids.

I grew up in the organisation learning language, science, mathematics and Mao’s ideology. Soon I learnt computers and began typing press releases, revolutionary poems, revolutionary messages for posters and banners. As I crossed age 12, I was given a chance to choose the weapon I would like to train. I preferred INSAS1 [automatic] rifles and carbines.
This 17-year-old girl had already spent over a decade in one of several left wing armed groups operating across ten states in central India when Child Soldiers International and HAQ: Centre for Child Rights (HAQ CRC) interviewed her in the Indian state of Jharkhand in August 2015. She had run away after an altercation with one of her superiors who suspected that she had been communicating with police informers. Terrified that she or her family would face reprisals from the group, she was in hiding at the time of the interview.

Our deep admiration for the girls in difficult circumstances and in conflict with the law, living within the confines of the statutory home. For trying to go past their psycho-social challenges and adapt to a ‘new idea of self’. And, for boldly tapping into the dormant and invisible power within to find strength to rebuild their lives and selfhood.

Budget for Children (BfC) is an important document which undertakes a critical analysis of the state budget in the context of the needs of the children of the state. For this, those schemes from the State Annual Budget which are directly related to the benefi t of children are selected and segregated.

You may have heard the famous saying of George Bernard Shaw - “To me the sole hope of human salvation lies in teaching.” As a civilization, we in India have always placed teachers in the highest echelons, next to God. And why not?
A teacher plays a crucial role in the life of an individual. A good teacher occupies a very significant and pious place in the minds of young students. After parents, it is the teacher who influences a child most, and contributes to the shaping of his or her personality.
As you are well aware, children in every society face abuse, violence and exploitation. If you only look around you, you will see it. Little children engaged in labour and deprived of schooling – many of them bonded-parents beating their children, teachers beating children in the classroom or discriminating against them because of their caste or religion, girl children not being allowed to be born or killed soon after birth, or facing discrimination in the family and society because they are girls, early marriage, rape and incest...
Yes, this is the reality of many children’s lives. Some of them may be in your class or your school.
As a teacher what will you do when you see a child being abused and exploited or hear about it?

As elected representatives of your gram panchayat you represent all the persons who live in your village. You also represent the children, even though they did not vote you in. As the elected representatives you are responsible for ensuring that the rights of children are protected.
Lest we forget, the children may not be voters today, but
will be tomorrow, when they become adults. They will then hold us, adults of today, accountable for how they been brought up.
