  • Vulnerable Children in India
    Oct 26 2021

    Over 170 million children in India face situations of abuse, exploitation and neglect. This is caused by situations of poverty, social exclusion, drug addiction, sexual abuse, crime or they have been orphaned, or abandoned. So what happens to these vulnerable children? What kind of childhood can they look forward to? And as a country how do we look after them?

    In episode 1 of Care of the State, Satyajeet Mazumdar, Head of Advocacy at Catalysts for Social Action speaks to a former Judge of the Supreme Court, Justice Madan Lokur and a child protection expert Arlene Manoharan, who help us understand the plight of vulnerable children in India, the struggles they face and the authorities and systems in place to look after them.
