Sensitising communities on ending violence against children is very much needed in the Thiruvadanai block. Due to lack of awareness, parents and children often do not report incidents. Kindly scale this awareness everywhere. Thanks to World Vision India.

I thoroughly enjoyed the self-defence class. I learnt a lot about what self-defence is and how to apply it effectively in dangerous situations. The training has given me the confidence to protect myself and stay safe. I now feel more prepared and aware of the importance of these skills in everyday life. This class has been an empowering experience, and I’m grateful to World Vision India for the opportunity to participate.
