Atmashakti Trust Research and Impact Manager presenting Madhya Pradesh fact finding data to the audience.
Atmashakti is engaged in a long term mission to bring the benefits of government programmes to the disadvantaged sections of rural India. Malti Singh and Mr. M.
Atmashakti was established in July 1995 with a broad mandate to support a mix of development initiatives in rural areas as well as urban slums. Since the principal trustees Mrs. Singh were actively engaged in supporting/working for other voluntary agencies, the trust remained dormant till 2008. Mrs Malti Singh was President of Amnesty International (Indian Section) for several years and later a me
mber of the International Mandate Review Committee. She was also a co-founder of Commonwealth Human Rights Initiative (CHRI) and its first Chief Executive. She was also President of the Delhi School of Music. In 1989 Mr. M.M. Singh gave up a fourteen-year career in the corporate world and chose to volunteer his time and efforts to the ‘development sector’ (a hazardous and addictive occupation that he is still stuck with!). Most of this time was spent volunteering with and subsequently growing and mentoring SRUTI (Society for Rural Urban and Tribal Initiative). A part of the experience gained with SRUTI was disaster relief and rehabilitation. When the Kosi River flooded its banks in North Bihar in September 2008 resulting in widespread devastation, Atmashakti Trust mobilized over Rs.12 lakhs to provide relief and rehabilitation to around 1200 families in one the worst affected areas. Atmashakti is now engaged in a long term mission to bring the benefits of government programmes to the poorest of the poor with a focus on the National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (NREGA) and Food Security.

Education cannot wait. Act now! Photos from Sonbhadra District, Uttar Pradesh.
As we progress with the fact-finding survey in other states, a common trend of inadequate school infrastructure is slowly emerging in all areas. It is frightening to see the mammoth work that is required to bring them to a usable condition.
We are not talking about tables, chairs, the availability of teachers or smart classrooms. Some of the photographs depict classes being conducted in the open field and on the verandah. There is NO CLASSROOM!!
In most places, there is a lock on toilets meant for girls. Water access is an issue. There is no kitchen area. The pictures show the ground reality.
Can we dream of a good future for our children with the current infrastructure – NO
Can we do something about it – YES!
We request that the government investigate school infrastructure and take immediate steps to improve them. Let’s us highlight these issues and ask for ACTION.
Education cannot wait. Act Now!

The school in Kharkhot village/panchayat is from Class 1-5. The school has only 2 classrooms with a verandah. There is no separate kitchen, and meals are cooked in a spare classroom. Meals are not served according to the menu. One saving grace is that there is availability of water in the school.
As you can see in the video, there is no awareness of the learning recovery programme. Raju says that there is much to be done about school infrastructure.

Yesterday, we shared a post on how 17% of children in Rayagada District, Odisha, are unaware of the Learning Recovery Programme (LRP).
Today, we are sharing data from Kandhamal District, which highlights completely different results. The data is a huge point of reflection for all of us - how with proper direction and implementation, LRP could be made most effective.
Thank you, DM Kandhamal, for monitoring the LRP personally and ensuring its outreach to all children. If there is a will, there is a way.
We request CMO Odisha to ensure timely and strict implementation of LRP in all parts of Odisha.

Education helps to shape children's minds and hearts, empower, change social norms and attitudes, to think independently, to speak out, and to be strong and free.
The pandemic has harmed the learning of more than 90 % of the world’s children – the largest disruption in history.
We want you to join in our efforts to bridge the gap by getting our children back to school by appealing to the government to implement an effective plan

Who cares for toilets in school? 34% of children do.Urging the state govt. to prioritise building and repairing of school toilets as offline classes resume. Valuing Toilet The RTE Act states that each school should have separate usable toilets for girls and boys and a safe and adequate drinking water facility. But the study report reveals, there is an immense continuing inadequacy in its availability and usability. Safe drinking water facilities in schools not only keeps school-going children away from dehydration and sickness. But it also helps in lessening student absenteeism. However, Odisha’s performance in WASH intervention is not that impressive as 3438 schools (34.34%) did not have drinking water facilities. The information shared by the School and Education Minister also reveals that 34,394 (more than 50%) government-run schools have no drinking water facilities. The absence of a functional toilet is a key peril in Odisha schools. The study report informed that 30.77% of schools in the surveyed districts lack usable toilet facilities. #gunjaran #chatashali #communitysupport #EveryVoiceMatters #EveryChildMatter CMO Odisha Naveen Patnaik Samir Ranjan Dash Ghasiram Panda Sudatta Khuntia Sikshasandhan Odisha Shramajeebee Manch Mahila Shramjeebi Mancha-Odisha CYSD Oxfam India Save the Children India Room to Read India Akshara Foundation Odisha Rteforum Indus Action NITI Aayog OSEPA info Aiptf India Ngobox Mohan Charan Majhi Narasingha Mishra Samir Mohanty Niranjan Patnaik Kasturi Ray ActionAid India India Today
Challenges galore for teachers as they are welcoming children to schools after 18 months. It's not just about enrolling them and teaching class subjects. The COVID-19 has changed they way we usually talk about classroom transaction. 👉Are our teachers ready to embrace children into a learning environment and be able to address their mental wellbeing issues? 👉 Are they trained or oriented on dealing with the children in a post-covid classroom? 👉Do children need extra psycho-social support from teachers to cope up with the new learning environment after a long gap? We interviewed many teachers who despite their confidence and all positivity braced up for support they need and challenges that they are going to face to handle as schools reopen. Let's listen to some of the teachers from across Odisha about this dwindling situation: #remotelearning #remoteteaching #pandemicteaching #covid19 #coronavirus #covid_19 #lockdown #schoolclosure #Ministry_of_School_Education #sdg4 #gunjaran #EveryVoiceMatters #chatashali CMO Odisha Samir Ranjan Dash Mohan Charan Majhi Narasingha Mishra Sandhyabati Pradhan OTV News Naxatra News News18 Odia ZEE Odisha Odisha RTE Forum Ghasiram Panda Oxfam India Save the Children India Room to Read India TheBetterIndia Down to Earth
Challenges of SMC members in a post-covid classroom
Schools in most parts of the country have reopened or going to reopen and children are getting re-integrated into the system. However, in the ‘new normal’, the school too has changed from pre-pandemic times. While most children think “it’s a relief” to be back in school in person instead of interacting with teachers and classmates through a screen, the transition is challenging, according to teachers and school authorities. In this context, the role of school management committee members is crucial as they have to monitor the work in school. To discuss about what challenges SMC members will face in terms of managing the post-covid classroom and functioning on their roles to bring children back to school, we are organizing a Facebook Live event in this page where Mr Anil Pradhan, Convener, Odisha RTE Forum is addressing all of us.
