Jun

Child labour is a very concerning and thoughtful topic to discuss, as addressing it can make a positive impact on the lives of children who have been forced into it. Child labour is an act when a child is forced or decides to work as labour, which is not allowed according to government laws. However, it still happens due to some cruel people who don’t believe in sympathy, care, or love. Today, on the occasion of World Day Against Child Labour, our organization, Smile India Trust, is fighting against the forces that use children for their own gain.

What is World Day Against Child Labour?

World Day Against Child Labour is observed on June 12th each year with the aim of raising awareness and promoting actions to end child labour. This day serves as a reminder of the millions of children around the world who are forced into various forms of labour.

It highlights the importance of protecting their rights, ensuring their education, and providing them with a childhood free from exploitation. It is also a call for individuals who witness child labour to advocate for policies and support that can help eliminate child labour and create a safe and nurturing environment for all children.

Why is World Day Against Child Labour celebrated?

  • The World Day Against Child Labour is observed to raise awareness and organize efforts to end child labour globally. Drawing attention to this issue allows us to emphasize the impact of child labour on children’s lives, education.
  • The day aims to raise support for preventive measures, advocate policies that safeguard children’s rights, and encourage individuals and governments to take action toward eradicating all forms of child labour.
  • Celebrating this day helps to ensure that the plights of millions of working children are not forgotten and emphasizes the collective obligation to create a society where every child lives a normal life like other well-settled children, not a life in which he has to work by force for the advantage of others.

What is child labour, and what are its different types?

Child labour refers to any form of work or activity that deprives children of their childhood potential or dignity and is harmful to their physical and mental development. It includes work that is mentally, socially, physically, or morally dangerous and harmful to children, interferes with their schooling, or requires them to work excessively long hours.

Some common types of child labour include hazardous work in sectors such as agriculture, mimicking construction and manufacturing, forced or bonded labour, domestic work, prostitution, and illicit activities such as drug trafficking or selling on the streets, as well as involvement in armed conflicts as a child soldier. These different types of child labour all violate children’s rights and perpetuate the cycle of poverty and exploitation.

What mental and physical problems do children confront when doing child labour?

  • Children engaging in child labour encounter a plethora of hurdles that can negatively influence their physical, mental, and emotional wellness. A difficult working environment puts them at risk of harm, significant disease, or even fatality.
  • Lack of access to education reinforces the cycle of poverty and limits future opportunities. Other issues include maltreatment by employers, pressure into work, poor compensation, social marginalization, and denial of basic childhood rights.
  • These difficulties not only affect the children themselves but also contribute to greater societal issues such as inequality, and poverty.

Is child labour legal in India, and if not, why?

  • The answer is that No. Child labour is unlawful in India. According to the country’s Child Labour Prohibition and Regulation Act. The statute forbids the employment of minors under the age of 14 in any occupation and controls the working conditions for children between the ages of 14 and 18.
  • The government has made attempts to eradicate child labour through legislation and enforcement. As well as by supporting education and social initiatives to protect children’s rights and well-being.

Statistics on child labour in India

According to the 2011 Census, India’s total kid population aged 5 to 14 is 259.6 million. Of these, 10.1 million (3.9% of the total kid population) are employed, either as “main workers” or as “marginal workers.

Future predictions

According to the Kailash Satyarthi Foundation’s research and 2011 census forecasts. India will have 7.8 million child labourers in 2023, with a male-female ratio of 57% and 43%, respectively.

Smile India Trust gives hope to children who are victims of child labour.

Our organization strongly believes that child labour is an act of punishment, and the government should strictly punish those who are using children for their profit. Using their potential in awful work rather than taking care of their future.

Child labouring in India is pretty common. As many parents also force their children to work as labourers so that they can have money in return. Smile India Trust wants to change and eradicate this tradition from society permanently.

Our action against child labour

  • we teach children about laws and their rights so that they can lead lives free from being compelled to work as labourers.
  • Furthermore, we conduct awareness campaigns in slums and rural areas with a high prevalence of child labour. Teaching people how they can prevent such incidents and protect children’s lives.

Smile India Trust: World Environment Day: A Step Toward a Green World

Posted on by Web Master
World Environment Day
05
Jun

 

A green environment is essential for human survival. Without a healthy natural world, wealth and fame are meaningless. There is no substitute for nature, and we should always keep this in mind. No matter how far science advances, nothing can replace the importance of nature and its role in sustaining life on Earth. On this World Environment Day, let’s make a promise to improve our environment and contribute to the health of Mother Earth. Smile India Trust is making positive changes in society through various initiatives aimed at maintaining an evergreen environment.

What is World Environment Day?

World Environment Day (WED) is a global event celebrated on June 5th every year to raise awareness about the importance of protecting the environment and promoting sustainable development. It was established in 1972 to mark the United Nations Conference on the Human Environment, which was held in Stockholm, Sweden.

Why is World Environment Day celebrated?

World Environment Day is celebrated to spread awareness about protecting the environment and preventing it.

It is a day to remind people of the grave consequences of environmental degradation, such as climate change, pollution, and the loss of biodiversity. On this day, people around the world come together to organize events, campaigns, and activities that promote sustainable living, conservation, and environmental protection.

Why is it crucial to have a healthy environment, and what bad effects can it have on humanity if it is not healthy?

  • A healthy environment is crucial because it provides the foundation for human health, economic growth, and social well-being.
  • When the environment is degraded, it can have severe consequences for our health, including an increased risk of diseases, respiratory problems, and mental health issues.
  • Moreover, a polluted environment can also harm our economy, leading to a loss of productivity, reduced competitiveness, and decreased quality of life.
  • Additionally, a healthy environment is essential for ensuring the long-term survival of our planet and nature, as it provides the necessary ecosystem services such as clean air and water, food security, and climate regulation.

How can a poor environment lead to the destruction of nature?

A poor environment can have detrimental effects on the health of nature. Pollution, such as air, water, and soil pollution, can harm plants, animals, and the overall ecosystem. Deforestation leads to the loss of habitats and biodiversity, impacting the balance of the ecosystem.

Habitat destruction and fragmentation disturb the natural movement of animals, causing population decline and potential extinction. It’s important to prioritize environmental conservation to ensure the well-being of all living beings.

Why is there no replacement for nature?

Nature doesn’t have a subtitle because it is truly unique and special. One scientific reason for this is its biodiversity. Biodiversity refers to the variety of living things and ecosystems on Earth. 

Nature also provides us with important things like clean air, water, and food. This is why it’s so important to take care of our environment and keep it safe for future generations.

What factors are leading to the destruction of our environment?

There are several factors contributing to the destruction of the environment. Such as human activities like industrialization, deforestation, and the burning of fossil fuels. These activities release harmful greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, leading to climate change. Pollution from industries, agriculture, and waste disposal contaminates air, water, and soil, harming ecosystems and biodiversity.

Unsustainable practices like overfishing and overexploitation of natural resources deplete our oceans and foster environmental damage. Additionally, rapid urbanization and infrastructure development often result in habitat destruction and fragmentation. It’s crucial that we address these issues if we wish for humanity to continue to exist.

Global statistics on nature and the environment

  • In 2015, 275 out of 390 monitored rivers (70%) were found to be polluted.
  • The total tropical primary forest loss in 2023 amounted to 3.7 million hectares. Which is equivalent to losing almost 10 football (soccer) fields of forest per minute. This represents a 9% decrease from 2022, but the rate in 2023 was nearly the same as that of 2019 and 2021.
  • The combined effects of ambient air pollution and household air pollution are associated with 6.7 million premature deaths annually. 

Smile India Trust’s unwavering commitment to improving the environment.

Smile India Trust is making a significant impact on society to save our environment and Mother Earth on the occasion of World Environment Day. We believe that we have only given back a fraction of what nature has provided us.

Tobacco is a very harmful substance that is freely available in countries where there is no ban on it. People who consume tobacco not only endanger their own lives but also the lives of their families and contribute to the worsening of society. It is essential to address this issue if we wish to prevent the downfall of our country’s youth. On World No Tobacco Day, Smile India Trust is working towards creating a tobacco-free society where this poison will no longer harm the lives of innocent people.

What is World No Tobacco Day?

World No Tobacco Day is commemorated every year on May 31st to increase public awareness about the detrimental impact of tobacco usage and to encourage people to quit or avoid using tobacco products.

This global health initiative, established by the World Health Organization (WHO) in 1987, aims to educate individuals about the dangers of tobacco and promote a tobacco-free lifestyle to reduce the burden of tobacco-related illnesses and fatalities worldwide.

What is the message that World No Tobacco Day aims to spread in the community?

World No Tobacco Day aims to spread awareness about the severe health risks associated with tobacco use. The day encourages individuals to adopt healthier lifestyles by either quitting tobacco or refraining from starting its use in the first place. It also highlights the need for stronger policies and measures to regulate and control tobacco production, marketing, and consumption.

Moreover, the day fosters a sense of collective responsibility, urging communities to support one another in overcoming tobacco addiction and promoting a tobacco-free environment for future generations.

At Smile India Trust, we understand the value of life and how important it is to take care of our health. We have witnessed people struggling to live a decent life due to various reasons like poverty, lack of employment, and more.

However, it becomes even more crucial to prioritize our health and well-being. Unfortunately, in India, many people living in slums and rural areas, especially the youth, are high consumers of tobacco, which is a serious concern.

This issue is not only limited to India but worldwide, where many people consume tobacco, putting their health at risk and stealing the only hope their parents have in the form of them. Our organization aims to eliminate tobacco use and motivate people to quit this poison as soon as possible. We run various initiatives to make this happen.

Conclusion

Tobacco use is not right, and everyone knows that it can threaten their lives. However, despite this knowledge, people still use it. The best we can do is raise awareness about the consequences of tobacco use and motivate those who are addicted to quit. On this World No Tobacco Day, our organization aims to spread the message of an illness-free society by encouraging people not to use tobacco and thus saving lives.

NGO Services in India Smile India Trust eliminating social issues that create poverty.

NGO Services

May

NGO Services: A typical human being desires to lead a decent life where they have all the necessities they require, and the same goes for their family. However, in India, a majority of people lack fundamental necessities due to social issues, which also hinder the growth of both the community and individuals who want to achieve something in life. This scenario is particularly challenging for underprivileged people, who struggle daily to meet their basic needs. Let’s take a look at how Smile India Trust is eliminating social issues and making lives better.

NGO Services by Smile India Trust inspire aid in adverse situations.

NGO Services offer hope and a solution to issues on a large scale. With facilities and services provided by NGOs, communities can thrive and become capable of overcoming any obstacle in their lives. At Smile India Trust, we provide NGO services to underprivileged people to tackle social issues that hinder the growth of people and the country.

What are social issues, and how can they affect underprivileged people?

Social issues are challenges and problems faced by societies, often involving inequality, injustice, or a lack of resources. These issues can range from poverty and unemployment to access to education, healthcare, and environmental concerns.

Underprivileged people who are already disadvantaged due to factors like economic status, race, gender, or disability are disproportionately affected by these issues. Social issues exacerbate their struggles, making it harder for them to access essential services, achieve equal opportunities, or enjoy a decent quality of life.

Why are social issues the reason for poverty in India?

Social issues can contribute to poverty because, without adequate opportunities and resources, individuals are unable to work towards a better future. Social issues can create obstacles for underprivileged individuals who are struggling to obtain fundamental rights and basic necessities.

If the younger generation does not have access to opportunities, they will be unable to contribute to the country’s economy as they will be without employment and opportunities.

How social issues can steal the opportunity to grow from deprived people

  • Social issues can pose significant obstacles to the growth and development of individuals in various ways. Firstly, limited access to education due to financial constraints or inadequate facilities prevents them from acquiring essential skills and knowledge that are crucial for professional development.
  • Secondly, unemployment and underemployment can trap them in a vicious cycle of poverty, making it challenging to improve their living conditions. Inadequate access to healthcare can also lead to poor health outcomes, affecting their ability to work and learn effectively.
  • Lastly, the lack of basic needs such as food and clothing can also harm their lives, as these necessities are essential for staying strong and overcoming obstacles in life.

Poverty statistics in India

The level of deprivation in a country can be measured using specific indicators that align with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). On July 17, 2023, NITI AAYOG reported a substantial decrease in the proportion of poverty-stricken people in the country, which declined from 24.8% to 14.9% between the years 2015-16 and 2019-21.

Smile India Trust supportive gestures in hardship.

Smile India Trust is an organization that provides assistance to individuals who are less fortunate during challenging times. Its mission is to bring positive changes to society by promoting equality and creating opportunities for those who are underprivileged and struggling to thrive. The organization shares its generosity and initiatives with people to help them build a brighter future.

Smile India Trust NGO Services to tackle social issues.

  • We, Smile India Trust, offer NGO Services to provide healthy meals through our food camp in areas such as slums. We believe that if we cannot help everyone, we should at least help some. Our dedication is to create a hunger-free world.
  • Healthcare is crucial for the well-being of any community, and Smile India Trust NGO recognizes this. They offer healthcare services, free medical check-ups, and medicine to people living in slums through their health camps. This ensures that everyone, regardless of their socio-economic status, has access to quality healthcare and can feel safe and secure.
  • Empowering women to address social issues can be more challenging than for men in Indian society due to deep-rooted gender biases that restrict the roles and opportunities available to women.

However, organizations like the Smile India Trust are working to change this mentality by spreading awareness about women’s empowerment and supporting them with quality education and vocational training. By equipping women with the skills and resources they need to become independent and self-sufficient, we can enable them to earn a living and lead fulfilling lives.

  • As an NGO, our goal is to empower the youth through education. We believe that every child has the right to an equal education, regardless of their gender, caste, or financial status. To achieve this, we provide free study materials to less fortunate children, with the aim of helping them realize their dreams. Our ultimate aim is to eliminate the ingrained prejudices that exist in society that hinder children’s access to education.

Conclusion

Smile India Trust provides NGO Services in India aimed at addressing social issues that lead to poverty. We are committed to supporting underprivileged individuals through various initiatives that help uplift their lives and enable them to become the best version of themselves. Our ultimate goal is to empower these individuals so that one day they can break the cycle of poverty on their own.

What is dengue, and what causes it?

Dengue is a mosquito-borne viral disease caused by any one of the four dengue virus stereotypes: Den-1, Den-2, Den-3, and Den-4. It is primarily transmitted by the Aedesaegypti and Aedesalbopictus mosquito species. These tiny insects carry the virus from one host to another. When an infected mosquito bites a person, it injects the virus into the person’s bloodstream, leading to dengue infection.

The disease can manifest as a mild flu-like illness or progress to severe forms like dengue hemorrhagic fever or dengue shock syndrome, which can be life-threatening if not properly managed. Prevention measures include controlling mosquito breeding sites, using insect repellents, and ensuring access to clean water and sanitation.

What are the symptoms that your body can exhibit when suffering from dengue?

Dengue fever is a viral infection that can cause a range of symptoms. These may include high fever, severe headaches, joint and muscle pain, nausea, vomiting, skin rashes, and mild bleeding such as nose or gum bleeding.

In severe cases, dengue fever can lead to dangerous drops in blood pressure, hemorrhagic fever, and organ impairment. If you suspect that you or someone you know may have dengue fever. It is crucial to seek medical attention right away to receive proper care and treatment.

What measures can we take to stay safe from dengue?

To protect yourself from dengue, it is crucial to follow some preventive measures. These include maintaining a clean environment to minimize mosquito breeding sites, regularly emptying standing water in containers, flower pots, and other storage units, and using mosquito nets, especially for children and elderly individuals.

Additionally, you can apply insect repellents to exposed skin and use mosquito repellent sprays in your living spaces, kitchen, garden, and overall house. You can also practice good personal hygiene, including regular hand washing and wearing protective clothing outdoors.

Mother’s Day
11
May

Smile India Trust is a non-profit organization celebrating Mother’s Day. This day is a symbol and a reminder of the hard work and effort that every mother puts in to make our lives better. It’s time to give back to them, and our organization is dedicated to bringing a smile to every mother’s face. We believe that a mother is like a goddess after God, as all lives begin with her, and we should honor and respect her.

What is Mother’s Day, an emotion rather than a festival?

Mother’s Day is a special day dedicated to honoring and celebrating mothers and mother figures. It is typically celebrated on May 12th. This day is full of emotions and is not just a festival to celebrate, but also a reminder of how precious our mothers really are.

It’s time to show love, gratitude, and appreciation for the love, care, and sacrifices that mothers make for their children and families. It’s a perfect opportunity to express love and appreciation for the amazing moms in our lives.

What is the importance of Mother’s Day in our lives?

Mother’s Day holds significant importance in our lives, as it serves as a special day to honor, appreciate, and express gratitude toward our mothers. It provides an opportunity to acknowledge the selfless love, care, and sacrifices made by mothers in nurturing and shaping our lives.

Celebrating Mother’s Day strengthens family bonds and fosters a positive environment, reminding us of the immense impact our mothers have on our personal growth and well-being.

Who is a mother, and why is she irreplaceable?

A mother plays an irreplaceable and individual role in a child’s life. She takes on various essential roles and responsibilities, from providing unconditional love and support to ensuring her children’s well-being. Mothers serve as a constant source of comfort and guidance throughout a child’s growth and development. Their influence extends beyond the practical aspects of raising a family.

They act as role models for their children, teaching valuable life lessons and shaping their identities and beliefs. The unique blend of love, wisdom, and emotional support that mothers provide makes them an irreplaceable part of every individual’s journey through life. The impact that they have on their children’s lives is immeasurable.

What challenges do mothers face? Is it easy to be a mother?

Being a mother is a wonderful and fulfilling experience, but it also has its fair share of challenges. Mothers face various difficulties that can vary depending on individual circumstances and situations. Balancing the responsibilities of motherhood with other aspects of life, such as work, can be demanding. Juggling multiple roles can sometimes feel overwhelming.

Additionally, the physical and emotional demands of caring for children can be exhausting.

Do mothers tend to neglect their own lives while prioritizing the care of their families?

Mothers often overlook their own lives while giving priority to the care of their families. It is natural for mothers to put their loved ones first and focus on meeting their needs. However, it is important for mothers to remember that taking care of themselves is equally important.

Finding a balance between caring for their family and making time for their own personal growth, hobbies, and self-care is crucial. By taking care of themselves, mothers can fulfill their roles better and be happier overall. It’s all about finding that balance and making self-care a priority, too.

Why is it important for us as children to empower the mothers in our society?

As children, it is crucial for us to empower the mothers in our society since they play a significant role in our lives. Mothers are usually the primary caregivers who provide us with love, support, and guidance. By empowering mothers, we acknowledge and appreciate their hard work, dedication, and sacrifices.

Empowering mothers means recognizing their strengths, encouraging their personal growth, and supporting them in achieving their goals. When mothers feel empowered, they can strive to be the best versions of themselves, which benefits not only their families but also society as a whole. It’s about creating a culture that values and uplifts the contributions of mothers in all aspects of life.

Smile India Trust celebrates Mother’s Day in its own style of kindness and compassion.

Our organization, Smile India Trust, recognizes the invaluable role of mothers in our lives. Without them, we would be nothing but empty shells, void of purpose. It is said that a mother’s embrace has the power to alleviate all our problems.

Basic needs are the fundamental requirements for survival and growth, which include food, water, shelter, clothing, and healthcare. These needs are crucial for our physical well-being and enable us to live a healthy and fulfilling life. It is essential to ensure that everyone has access to these basic needs to promote a happy and prosperous life for all.

NGO in India Smile India Trust changing social situation.

Smile India Trust is an NGO in India that is taking revolutionary steps towards a more developed society where the needs of every individual are met. Our aim as an NGO is to support the less fortunate by uplifting them both physically and emotionally. We believe that a prosperous community always leads to a better future.

What are the basic needs?

Basic needs are essential requirements for human survival, well-being, and development, and they are categorized into four main areas: physiological, safety, love and belongingness, and self-actualization.

Physiological needs include food, water, shelter, and clothing, which are vital for maintaining our physical health. Safety needs encompass personal security, financial stability, and health, ensuring a stable and protected environment.

Love and belongingness needs involve forming meaningful connections with others, such as family, friends, and relatives, fostering a sense of belonging. Lastly, self-actualization needs pertain to personal growth, fulfillment, and realizing one’s potential, allowing the individual to reach their highest level of accomplishment and happiness.

Why is there still a struggle in India to meet basic needs?

India is facing a persistent struggle to meet the basic needs of its vast population due to a combination of factors such as widespread poverty, deep-rooted inequality, and an uneven distribution of resources and wealth. Additionally, infrastructure and development gaps, especially in rural areas, limit access to essential resources like clean water and healthcare. Climate change and environmental issues are also contributing to the scarcity of resources, making it harder for people to fulfill their basic needs. Lastly, ineffective or corrupt government policies can hinder the efficient distribution of resources and services, compounding the challenges faced by millions of Indians in their quest to meet these fundamental requirements.

Poverty conditions in India

  • Around 34 million people in India are living in extreme poverty, which is less than 3 percent of the population. This is a decrease from 40 million in 2023 and 46 million in the previous year, according to the World Poverty Clock. Purchasing power parity (PPP) is a metric that allows for global comparisons of economic data.
  • In India, the number of people in multidimensional poverty decreased from 645 million in 2005/2006 to 370 million in 2015/2016 and 230 million in 2019/2021.

How can the lack of basic needs lead to the destruction of a country?

  • Widespread poverty and inequality occur when people’s basic needs are not met, making it difficult for them to make ends meet. This can lead to social unrest and political instability, as individuals and groups may fight for limited resources, resulting in conflicts and chaos.
  • Education is a fundamental need that empowers individuals to acquire skills and knowledge, enabling them to contribute to the economy and society. A lack of education can result in a less skilled workforce, which can hinder economic growth and development. Moreover, an uneducated population may encounter difficulties in making informed decisions that affect political participation and governance. Therefore, education is essential for the growth and development of individuals and society as a whole.
  • Access to healthcare is crucial for maintaining the health and well-being of a population. When basic healthcare needs are not met, preventable diseases can spread, leading to a less healthy population. A weakened healthcare system can also strain the economy. As people may be unable to work or contribute to society due to illness. This, in turn, can further exacerbate poverty and inequality.
  • The impact of poverty inequality. A less educated population and a weak healthcare system can impede a country’s overall development and progress. This can result in a harmful cycle where the absence of basic needs perpetuates the issues, making it challenging for the country to recover and advance.
