Who are we?
The Main Goal of Indaro Center
Our main goal is to work on child Protection and Participation as pathway to reach the Responses, related youth and children’s Recreation and Resilience to any abuse as rights to protection from abuse, neglect, exploitation and violence as expressed in the CRC Convention on the Rights of the child and African Charter on child protection, National Social Protection Policy in Rwanda, Refugee treaties and other conventions, national laws and other human rights or humanitarian instruments related. Child protection deals with issues that are sensitive, sometimes stigmatizing and often hidden (such as domestic violence and sexual abuse), and with violations that are often socially accepted (such as corporal punishment).

Actual street children like other people fighting to survive in their world but with addiction and poverty. What we can do together is to manage the delinquency, dropout of school, with local leaders who are in charge of managing delinquency issues and prevent children to move from villages to urban cities.
