The concept of children‟s participation has evolved over the last decade but the notion, either in theory or in practice, has not been able to make a significant dent in the collective mindset of the social and political institutions and the individuals who comprise of them. Most initiatives and interventions have arguably been confined to children‟s rights organizations and activists, and need to be appreciated and accepted by the mainstream society and the state in order to be scaled up. This is largely because of a lack of conceptual understanding and the appreciation of the value and practicability of children‟s participation.

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?

These donations help ensure that young learners worldwide have the resources they need to explore and excel in STEM fields. By supporting education in this way, we aim to nurture a global community of future leaders and innovators.
Our live lectures feature guest speakers from various STEM disciplines, including engineers, scientists, and industry professionals who share their knowledge and experiences with our students. These lectures provide valuable insights into potential career paths and inspire students to pursue their passions in STEM.
Up the Ratios relies on the generosity of donors and volunteers to continue our work. Contributions of time, expertise, and financial support are crucial to sustaining our programs and expanding our reach. Whether you're an individual passionate about education, a professional in the STEM field, or a company looking to give back to the community, there are many ways to get involved and make a difference.
We are proud of the positive impact we've had on the lives of countless students, many of whom have gone on to pursue higher education and careers in STEM. By providing these young minds with the tools and opportunities they need to succeed, we are not only changing their futures but also contributing to the advancement of technology and innovation on a broader scale.

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

2. Through the efforts of SOS Children’s Villages and our many
partners, the 17 SDGs embody a driving principle to ensure that
no one is left behind in the fight against poverty and inequality.
SOS Children’s Villages contributes to SDGs 1, 3, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16
and 17. However, five SDGs – 1, 4, 8, 10 and 16 – are central to
our programmes and strategy to ensure the greatest impact of our
work and partnerships on children’s outcomes.
THE SDGS AND US
The problem: Our response:
SOS Children’s Villages builds the capacities and
resilience of families and communities to help break the
cycle of poverty and exclusion. We work with partners
to empower families, including support for generating
income, as well as managing household resources.
When it is in the child’s best interest, we provide
alternative care following the international Guidelines
for the Alternative Care of Children. Nationally and
internationally, we advocate for inclusive state social
protection for vulnerable children, young people and
families.
SOS Children’s Villages is a non-political, non-
denominational organisation that works to protect
and safeguard children by strengthening families and
building-up the capacities of child care professionals,
also training them in how to fulfil quality standards and
children’s rights. We raise awareness of the factors
that put children at risk of violence and advocate
for improved protections for all children. We teach
parenting skills and positive discipline techniques, and
we train caregivers, community members and children
to recognise and safely report abuse.
SOS Children’s Villages advocates for policies and
practices that ensure equal opportunities, non-
discrimination and social inclusion for all children
and young people. We help children, families and
communities break the cycle of poverty and exclusion
so that future generations can be active and equal
participants in society.
SOS Children’s Villages works with trusted partners to
provide access to post-secondary education, technical
courses and mentorship programmes, and together we
support young people in developing the employability
skills and self-confidence necessary to become
independent adults with decent work. We assist
young people leaving care in developing life skills and
obtaining stable housing and decent work.
SOS Children’s Villages supports children and
young people in accessing quality education – from
early childhood and basic education, through upper
education and preparation for employability. We promote
learning and training programmes open to the whole
community, helping to build skills and capacities. We
strengthen public education through partnerships and
advocacy. During humanitarian emergencies, our child
friendly spaces offer safe spaces for learning and play.
Poverty is a key contributing factor to children losing
parental care. The majority of these children could
actually live with their family of origin, if adequate social
protections were available. Too many alternative care
arrangements lack quality control and expose children
to sub-standard living conditions and psychological or
emotional deprivation – in short, denying them their
rights as children.
Violence is a major risk factor for children being
removed from their family. Adding to the problem,
children separated from their family are at higher
risk of violence. Children who lack the fundamental
protection of a caregiver, whether parents, extended
family members or care professionals, are easy
targets for abuse, neglect, and exploitation. Tragically,
violence fuels a cycle of violence: children who
experience violence are more likely to become victims
or perpetrators of violence later in life.
Children and young people who lack an attentive
caregiver to protect and guide them are less likely to
exercise their rights, and more likely to miss out on
vital information and access to health, education, good
nutrition, or social and life skills. Such exclusion can
lead to a vicious cycle of poverty, diminished health
and social inequality.
Unemployment and unstable or low paid jobs can
undermine parents’ abilities to provide for their children.
While employment can help prevent family breakdown,
in the absence of affordable, quality childcare, it can
also result in lack of supervised care for children. Young
people who have lost parental care may struggle to
become independent, coping with increased rates
of unemployment, informal employment, child labour,
sexual exploitation or trafficking, and homelessness.
Children without parental care face challenges in
accessing quality education from early childhood
through higher education – in many cases, due to
lack of economic support or help from an adult who
understands their situation and looks out for their
interests. In emergencies and non-emergencies,
children without parental care are at greater risk of
dropping out of school to provide for themselves or
siblings in child-headed households.
