per child in average is about 60,000/- Nepalese rupee. The cost covers lodging,
fooding, clothes, training fees, stationary, travelling and so on during the training

At present:

Education programme for hawkwer children

Nepal has already ratified the convention on the rights of the child on sept. 14, 1990
which was adopted by UN General Assembly on 20th November 1989. It has almost
been 12 years period that Nepal has shown it’s committed to CRC. There are many
children who are selling newspapers in the streets of Kathmandu city as well as others
parts of the country being deprived of rights. The street life may push them in various
mischievous activities and compelled to be involved in criminal acts. Realizing the

5
above mentioned facts. NCO has taken an initiative to run “Education Programme for
Hawker Children” to improve their present condition.

Target group and area

Hawker children who are under 16 years of age are the prime targets of program. At
the beginning the program will be conducted in Kathmandu valley and later extended
in other parts of the country.

NCOs survey on Hawker children

During the survey process, the hawker children ignored to talk with NCO staff in field
where they usually used to sell newspaper. It might also because they were in hurry to
sell the newspaper. Then NCO organized a meeting with editors and managers of the
newspapers named Probhatkalin and Sandhtakalin that are published in every morning
and afternoon respectively. In the meeting the representative of the newspaper
decided that NCO would take initiate foe educational supports to the children who are
selling newspaper in the morning.

The following are some of the findings of the survey:

 The number of youngest 9 years children 2 children


 The number of 16 years age 14 children
Children from outside the valley 40 children
Children from Kathmandu valley 45 children
Children who are continuing studying in school 46 children
Children who have left school study 8 children
Children who never appeared school 15 children
Most children involved selling Sandhyakalin 51 children
Least children involved selling Samacharpatra and Saptahik 11 children

Maximum income Rs400/day


Least income Rs 20/day
Average income per child per day Rs 50-100/-

6
Why children become hawker?

As per the NCOs survey there are total 85 (boys 82, girls 3) hawker children in
Kathmandu valley. However the number may reach 150. Likewise the number
of children in the profession is increasing day by day in other urban area of the
country. According to the survey the children express their views to give
continuity to their work. The reasons for engaging in this profession were as
follows:
 Poverty -43 children
 To maintain education expenditure -15 children
 To earn money -5 children
 Not mentioned -4 children
 Other various problem -12 children

The news house denies paying money and stopping giving them newspaper
are among the problem that children are encountering. At present, NCO has
committed to run the following actions for these children:

 To arrange discussion program among hawker children and NCOs


program coordinator.
 To determine objective and action plan for facilitating formation of
children’s club.
 To plan relief program immediately for the children

Forms of proposed Program

1. Scholarship program
Among the hawker children, 10 talented children will be encouraged to continue
their study by providing their school fee, uniform, books and stationers. For this
purpose there needs recommendations from children’s school.
2. To aware children about the harmful conditions as well as addition and
misconduct

The child protection home (CPH)

The Nepal Children’s Organization (NCO) is a child rights and welfare institution.
The child protection home is the last project of NCO which was opened on 20th
November 2001. Its main aim is to provide a safe and secure home environment for
the children who would otherwise be in jail with their convicted parents, for the
following reasons: when the both parents and the guardian are in jail, when the main
wager is in jail, when they both are in jail.

If these children are not rescued from the jail and protected in a secure environment,
they are always in danger of physical and mental abuse. Their emotional development
could be damaged causing a long term educational and social issues. Their nutritional
and medical requirements may not be met causing serious health problems and they
could develop bad behavior in this environment. As every child has right to lead a
proper life, the child protection home not only provides the child with nutritious food
and shelter but also with education. If the child has any guardian outside, besides
his/her parents they are first given to them. If they are financially weak or is suffering

9
from other personal problem then the child protection home is held responsible for the
child. The child protection home provides these children with their rights and by
teaching them to be disciplined citizen of Nepal.

This home is situated just about a kilometer far from the central office. The orphanage
was established on 18th February 1980 and changed as children protection home on
20th November 2001 on the auspicious occasion of international children’s rights day.
The home serves those children whose parents are living in jail. At present, there are
50 children (33 boys and 17 girls) living where 11 staffs are working.

This home aims to serve children who are completed live their parents in the jail as
dependent children due to lack of career outside. It is because NCO believing that
children should not victimize upon the act of their parents. Moreover we all know that
jail is not a place for children and it will create negative impact on innocent children
psychologically living in the jail with parents and deprived them with basic amenities
such health, education and opportunities in life. Furthermore, children mixing with
criminal people and environment might puss them toward criminal activities from the
beginning stage of their life. Considering the fact, NCO is running this home.

The Child Protection Home is situated at Sepal. It has provided protection for 90
children starting from 2001 till now and 33 rehabilitation children. At present, there
are 57 children living at Sepal, the maximum capacity is for 60. The Child Protection
Home provides a living for the children between ages 3-16 but if the child has solo
parent i.e. if the mother is dead and the child is very young then also the CPH
provides a living for the infants only by the permission provided by the father. There
is a team of staff looking after their daily needs and rout lines. The children are woken
up at 6 a.m. for the morning wash and then breakfast is served. There is a time for
them to play before the older children go to either kindergarten or outside schools.
They return at 4 p.m. for further free time or supervised homework and after an
evening meal they go to sleep.

Regular function of Child Protection Home

Child protection home not only provides the children with nutritious food, homely
environment and protection but also helps the children to develop their mental and

10
physical health in every possible ways. Besides these it provides with other functions
like:

 School education
 Kindergarten class
 Child development class
 Library
 Monitoring programs
 Counseling programs
 Technical training

1.2 Statement of Problem

In Nepal’s people are very poor and illiterate due this reason more children are being
homeless day by day. Homeless is also increasing due to lack of awareness among
people. Lack of employment opportunities for the peoples in the country has
increased street life and it also creates homeless children day by day.

1.3 Objectives of the study

The main objective of the study is to attempt the partial fulfillment of examination of
project management required for the fulfillment of Degree of Bachelor of Business
Studies.

 To analyze about the homeless people and their living problem.


 To know about homeless children in NCO.
 To provide general information about homeless children.
 To provide awareness about child rights.

1.4 Significance of the study

 Every child is a symbol of hope. Child of today is the national property.


He/she is the pillar for the development of the country in the future.

11
 Nepal has more than 50% of the children under the age of 16 years. These
children can be tracked for the better future if the mechanism is developed
under systematic approach. The decision whether to mould a child into better
future career entirely depends upon the amount of resources invested for their
welfare. If investment become fragile, the children will be completely be blind
with insecurity towards their future resulting into added burden to the country.
The government in connection should make sure basic requirements needed
for children to have better future.
 Many research finding urge that it is always better for any children living with
family but not for those who have lost their parents because of various reason
which are not caused because of them but they have arised on and on. So,
government should implement right laws and take necessary actions require
for preserving future of those homeless and helpless children.

1.5 Limitation of the study

As the Child Protection Home is the topic of the study chosen, the scope of the study
is very broad. There are certain field which is specially chose excluding other fields.

 The study has got some limitation due to the lack of efficient time, budget and
other facilities. Moreover the study is mainly based on secondary data.
Therefore it may contain reporting errors.
 The study based on data of homeless children of Nepal. It means it is limited
in the country only.
 Study period is too short so lack of time has influenced the study.

1.6 Organization of the study

This study is based on three chapters. The first chapter includes introduction, second
chapter includes data presentation and analysis and the third chapter includes
summary, conclusion and recommendation.

12
1.7 Research Methodology

It discusses about the method of data collection, statistical tool presentation, scope
and limitation of the study and the sources of data instrument of data collection.

with their rights and CPH providing home to convicted children.

There are two sources of data – primary data and secondary data. The data collection
here is based in primary and secondary sources due to its broad scope. The secondary

 Major findings
1. The study is an attempt to find out the situation of children in NCO and CPH.
The efforts are also made to understand the societal facts about the children
being in NCO. During the study period, beside the revelation of facts and
figures coming out the available data of the children at NCO constant
association and interaction with the children lead to the conclusion that
poverty and literacy are the dominant factor of the children being in
orphanage.

2. In an under developed country like Nepal most of the children are uneducated,
poor and homeless so NCO provides them with proper shelter, education. It

23
has been working like a mother to these homeless children with love and
affection. In this respect to the large extend, NCO has been safe guarding the
children’s right by providing foster parents. They provide them love and care
of family through adoption process, providing sponsors for their each problem
related to children reflects the state of the society.

3. Most children generally do not land on the area of risk by themselves, they are
pushed down by the socio economic factor of their circumstances.
Generalizing the problem of the children at risk without any proper analysis
will fail led to the bottom of the problem and the strategy planning developed
for the target children will be ineffective in practice. Principally all of us
children have got the first right to receive humanitarian support at time of
emergency. Therefore all children at risk should be prioritize for their overall
development. But the existing situation doesn’t reflect these principles and the
reality is the opposite. To work for the children is not only welfare work. It is
empowerment, motivation and networking of people and group for action.

though there are many financial and managerial constraints. NCO has established
a good netwok in 75 districts to provide the better opportunities to the children to
develop themselves as a complete person so that they can spend normal life when
they are from the homes.

3.2 Conclusion
Everyone agrees that families play a vital role in child’s life. Families are the one
who guide them in a proper way. So for homeless children NCO provides them
with a good living environment, personal care and affection in homely
atmosphere.
Children are the building block of the future; they need proper guidance to cope
with the demands of growing up and the need to have some sense that there is a
regular, dependable to the world. The movement on the rights of the children
should not only be concentrated in the cities and town. All the rural areas also
should be touched. Organization like NCO, CPH etc. has been working to provide
all the children from cities, towns to rural area with their rights.

3.3 Recommendation
Each section of our society is concerned with children and is obliged to fulfill
their obligation foe restoring the rights of every child. Each people’s movement
will be incomplete if one does not give enough emphasis to homeless children.
We are all duty bound to answer the survival rights, development of the children
and for the best interest of a child most come first.
Among the respondents taken from NCO 34% of them were mistreated by
teachers at the respective school. The children should be given awareness
regarding their right because during the study the researcher found there is
something lacking in their knowledge about children’s.
