Butterflies India
Butterflies founded by Ms.Rita Panicker〔Rita Panicker〕 is a registered voluntary organisation working with vulnerable children, especially street & working children in Delhi since 1989. With a rights based, participatory, non-institutional approach the organisation endeavours to educate and impart life skills to vulnerable children so that they become self-reliant.
==Genesis & Guiding Principles==
The idea behind Butterflies began in the 1980s, when Ms.Rita Panicker Pinto〔https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0XU6i7xSJnY〕 began interacting with children living on the streets & platforms of Mumbai. She noticed that these children were extremely vulnerable. She took action. Rita〔http://www.thehindu.com/features/metroplus/society/giving-wings-to-childhood/article5351048.ece〕 along with Asst. Professor P. Nangia did a Situational Analysis of Study of Street and Working Children in Delhi for UNICEF in 1988. It was the first study on the subject on the country. It gave her an insight into their lives, why they are on the streets. Her interest deepened. Soon her vision began to take shape and she decided to work with this group of children.
Thus was born Butterflies〔https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dsb2d57BWTc〕 with the core value and belief that it must be a democratic organisation and children’s voices have to be listened to seriously. Children’s participation in decision making processes is central to Butterflies’ work ethos. It is non institutional in its approach as Butterflies believes that institutionalising children should be the last resort. The importance of strengthening families and communities to protect and take care of children is strongly advocated as families are the first line of defense for children. Butterflies’ emphasis is on supporting children to continue schooling, impart life skills education so that they can exit from generational poverty.
Since its humble beginnings in 1989, Butterflies has grown into a movement with 140 staff reaching out to almost 5,000 children every year and has touched the lives of almost 45,000 children till date. Even as they grow in numbers, the Butterflies story still centres around protecting & empowering every street & working child in India.
