Including Children in ‘We Can’
Children in 62 schools in seven districts of Tamil Nadu - Trichy, Dindugal, Theni, Chennai, Salem, Krishnagiri and Karur – have been involved in the campaign. The allies began by sensitising the school authorities and holding orientation programmes for them. They then began informal interactions with children through workshops, discussions and the use of street theatre, song, dance, puppets and art competitions. The allies say that the children are hugely motivated and thrilled to be part of the campaign. Fifty one events have so far been held for children who have turned up in huge numbers and more than 21,000 chilldren have become Change Makers.
