Let’s Empower Our Youth and Introduce Them to Their Moral Conscience!

Nitimulya Shikshan

Today’s social and lifestyle issues are taking youth away from their cultural roots. They are unaware of their duties and responsibilities towards their family and elderly. Children are losing touch of their morals and family values. They are not aware of their cultural practices and their approach towards life is becoming very practical. Introducing them to their moral conscience, educating them about age-old cultural and religious practices, and showing them the importance of family values has become a need of the hour. For tackling this growing issue, Sundar Sanskar and Swadhyay Mandal has curated a youth-empowering program - Nitimulya Shikshan. This program aims at creating a sense of discipline, self-reliance, confidence, and social and cultural awareness among children between the age 10 to 14. It easily adjoins school syllabus and helps children develop culturally and socially.

This project is divided into three parts
First Part:
Students are taught about the importance of self-discipline, self-reliance, good habits and an understanding of relationships around them.

Second Part:
Keeping personality development in mind, this part covers teaching children about time management, empathy, helpfulness, and importance of healthy eating habits. Importance of physical activities like games and sports, the art of public speaking etc is also covered in this.

Third Part:
The last part encourages students to become a good and responsible citizen of the society where they live by the social and cultural values. They are also taught about their duties towards the society.
