FXB India Suraksha organized a Speciality Medical Camp with the support of Altimetrik , a data and digital engineering service company and its CSR Wing Impact at Rana Basti, Jaipur, Rajasthan. 225 persons including children accessed the free medical check up.
Rana Basti is a slum in Jaipur where FXBIS is currently running one of its Suraksha Education Centres to help children access quality education. It is a backward slum and lacks immediate health care facilities. Hence, this camp gave an opportunity to reach out to people living there and provide them with routine health check up, medicines and referrals to Government Hospitals. This was only possible with the support and volunteering service we received from Altimetrik and its team.

"Use and abuse of technology"
This year's there focuses on the role of technology as a tool that can both enable and impede human trafficking.
The internet and digital platforms offer traffickers numerous tools helping them to perform illegal trafficking activity with greater speed, cost effectiveness and anonymity. Traffickers use social media to identify, groom & recruit victims; emails & messaging services are used for moral coercion. Through such online platforms, traffickers can advertise services provided by victims including child photographical material. Hence, prevention and awareness raising activities on the safe usage of internet and social media could help mitigate the risk of people talking victim of trafficking online.
With the World Day Against Trafficking in Persons around the corner, FXB India Suraksha is going to observe the day in three different operational areas- Manipur, West Bengal and Uttar Pradesh by organizing rallies, awareness generation programs, street play, poster-making and video-making competitions.

In order to ensure a child-friendly environment, FXBIS is committed to redress socio-economic vulnerabilities by working with communities and co-creating sustainable development solutions.
As the country chapter of the Geneva-based NGO, François-Xavier Bagnoud International (FXBI), FXB’s activities in India date back to 1991. In 2007, FXB India Suraksha was established as an autonomous Indian entity registered under section 8 of the Companies Act, 2013.

Currently, our 10 state teams across India are working on issues related to the areas of children rights and protection, gender equality, improved health and nutrition, sanitation and water, care and support to HIV/AIDS infected and affected people, quality education, enhanced livelihoods options as well as prevention of human trafficking and child sexual abuse. As of date, we have catalysed change and self-reliance for over 5 lakh families through the community-based integrated interventions.
