eAmbalam’s Life Art Education is a Life Skills education for children and as a part of the Personality Development sessions delivered through the program, we believe that knowledge of one’s own body, knowledge of how to keep it safe from abuse is a basic life skill every child needs to know.
The objective is to sensitize children to the concept of “Bad touch” and to teach them a technique to protect themselves from bad touch.
In this direction, sessions of Good Touch/Bad Touch for children from the Standards 1st to 5th will be conducted in all schools. This will culminate in a parent interaction session for all parents of the above mentioned classes to orient them for sustained engagement with the children on safety measures.
When every child learns this self protection technique, we can hope to prevent or reduce Child Sex Abuse in our society. It works like immunizing children against deadly diseases; the earlier they are protected the better.
