CHILD PROTECTION

Building a Safe World for Every Child

At Development Action Society (DAS), child protection is a core commitment. We work to safeguard the rights and dignity of children from marginalized communities—especially those of migrant workers and daily wage earners—who face risks such as child labour, abuse, trafficking, early marriage, and discrimination.

Creating a Protective Environment

DAS has built a strong child protection ecosystem through:

Community engagement and awareness campaigns

Training for parents, teachers, and local leaders

Collaboration with government bodies like ICPS, DCPU, and Child Protection Committees

These efforts have helped mainstream over 6,000 children into safe educational systems, while maintaining close vigilance on their well-being.

Engaging Children, Empowering Change

We empower children to become advocates for their own safety and development through:

Personality Development Programs

Reading, writing, sports (including our renowned Rugby Girls Team), arts, and cultural activities

Children’s Parliament

A platform where 150+ children engage in dialogue, leadership, and rights advocacy

Child-Led Protection Groups

Children monitoring and preventing exploitation in their communities

Youth Leaders as Peer Educators

70 trained children lead sessions on abuse, addiction, HIV/AIDS, and more
