Learning to Teach Child Rights

This Training Manual aims to sensitize teachers, trainers and NGO functionaries and provide basic information about child rights and participatory activities to make learning interesting. The manual comprises of seven training modules - Understanding the Child, Why Child Rights - including Indian and UN Perspective of Child Rights, Child's Right to Survival, Development, Protection and Participation, Child Rights - Programming and Advocacy. These modules can be effectively integrated in pre-service or in-service teacher training programmes and also be used for capacity building programmes for NGO/GO functionaries working with children. With suitable modification, the contents can also be incorporated into the curricula at school and college levels as well as teachers' trainings. 

The training manual comes with a companion reader, as a Resource Book to provide resources that can be used by the trainer/facilitator during the training  definitions, statistics, case studies, activities and more.

A World Without Tears, a children's Reader on child rights, is an attractively produced story to enable children to understand what rights are, know their rights as children and encourage them to spread awareness about children's rights as well as initiate action in their communities.
