Effort for reducing Street Children

             It is an undeniable fact that the present scenario of street children of Nepal are not the result of poverty alone but several other circumstances concluding to problems that force these children to be what they are today. These street children need to be educated, protected and havethe right to live in the society. Thus, there are many Government and Non government organizations helping these street children to be independent individuals through education and vocational trainings. The people in Nepal who are living under the line of poverty, has to keep themselves out of the basic need of life such as shelter, education and general medical treatments. Most of the people from poor family are labor, working in someone farm, construction site or somewhere else, the toughest job. Generally these families have great number of family members followed by yearly born children and their children are also forced to work more hours a day then their age, since the income of parent canÆt afford lodging and food for the entire family members. Those children living/working with their parent have to keep themselves out of school. Not only family matters or poverty but also many circumstances that keeps children out of school.Somewhere there is no school nearby and somewhere their parents don't want them to go to school as the traditional rural Nepalese community who still thinks that the school education don't let them have enough instantly what they want - the daily bread whereas if they work on someone farm they will have it by the evening.
