The City Walk is a guided tour around New Delhi Railway Station and Paharganj area in which former street children share their personal story of survival with the participants and show them the contact points and shelter homes Salaam Baalak Trust provides.〔(Indian Street Kids Offer Glimpse Into Their Lives With Guided Tours ) ''South Asian Women's Forum'', May 22, 2006.〕〔(Runaway guides ) ''The Hindu'', ''Businessline'', April 6, 2007.〕〔(Discover a Delhi underbelly you never knew, through the eyes of child guides ) ''The Telegraph'', March 12, 2007.〕 Salaam Baalak Trust (SBT), a non-profit organization, has been running the walk for about four years now, taking care of present and former street children in Delhi. Through this program, the young guides, who are former children of the Trust, get an opportunity to improve their communication and marketing skills independently. ''The Walk'' aims to sensitize people to the lives of street children and helps to provide a deeper insight about street life from people who have experienced it themselves.〔(Sustainable Tourism )〕 During 2012-13, the City Walk program also received quite some media coverage by the BBC World, ''The Hindu, Hindustan Times'' and prominent German and Italian newspapers. With help from volunteers, BBT has developed new City Walk Trailers, which give a good first impression about the Walk.〔(Annual Report, Salaam Baalak Trust )〕 All proceeds go directly to the trust to enable more opportunities to be made for street children. The walk does not make a profit.〔(SBT Homepage )〕 〔(Tehelka Foundation report )〕 〔(Hindu article )〕 == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Salaam Baalak City Walk – New Delhi」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
