OUR GUIDING VALUES – The UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (UN CRC) provides a guiding framework for our work. While our focus is child centered we recognize:
- That for holistic development of children, issues concerning their families, communities and society have to be addressed including poverty and social justice
- That children and their needs, interest and rights should be considered and have priority in all policy planning and action by Government, both State, Central, the public and that the ICCW, Tamil Nadu has a role in lobbying for and protecting the interest of the children.
- That the child, for the full & harmonious development of his/her personality, should growup in a family environment.
- That education is the fundamental right of every child.
- That the girl child needs special attention so as to ensure her rights to survival, develpment and protection.
- That we have the most meaningful and widest impact on children’s lives we need to work at the macro-level in influencing policy, changing social attitudes and networking with appropriate authorities, media, NGOs, the public and children themselves.
