Street children, are children that have been subject to sleeping rough on the streets, causing them to fall into drugs, sexual exploitation and child labour. These are children without protection, vulnerable and alone. We work to provide these children with a safe space where they can escape these cruelties.
Bangladesh
There are over 600,000 street children in Bangladesh, with 75% living below the poverty line. READ, along with a partner organisation, runs two drop-in centres in Bangladesh, working to empower the disadvantaged.
Each child is provided with basic education, life skills, vocational training and a health check. This prevents them from being trafficked or exploited for child labour. The centres provide a place for the children to escape from the dangers they face and equips them with the skills and knowledge they need to protect themselves from the risks associated with living on the streets.
