IHRC Volunteers in India Support Local Communities

IHRC Volunteers in India Support Local Communities Through Education and Human Rights Promotion.

Volunteers from the International Human Rights Commission (IHRC) in India are actively engaging in a series of initiatives aimed at raising awareness about human rights and supporting education in local communities in the states of Uttarakhand and Bihar. These efforts reflect the mission of the IHRC, which is centred on promoting equality, dignity, and justice worldwide.

In Uttarakhand, IHRC official volunteer Mangal Das organised a program to spread awareness about human rights. As part of this initiative, IHRC posters and banners were displayed to inform the public about the importance of human rights. One of the key aspects of this event was honouring members of the community by presenting them with symbolic gifts and bouquets of flowers. This gesture served as recognition for their contribution to promoting the values of equality and dignity.

In the state of Bihar, IHRC volunteer Parshuram Prasad organised an educational program targeted at children and adults who are unable to read and write. In line with the IHRC’s belief that education is a key driver for personal growth and self-realisation, volunteers made significant efforts to impart knowledge through interactive games and activities. During this event, children received books and educational materials and had the opportunity to participate in learning sessions that combined education with play. This was not only a way to introduce them to the world of knowledge but also to encourage them to continue their educational journey.

Bishop Dr. H.E. Shamsher Khan and IHRC volunteer Parshuram Prasad played a pivotal role in implementing this initiative, sharing IHRC’s values and knowledge with the program’s participants. Together, they emphasised the importance of education as a tool for developing skills and building an informed society.

These actions reflect IHRC’s commitment to supporting initiatives that contribute to improving the quality of life in local communities and promoting the values of equality, dignity, and respect for human rights. The work of IHRC volunteers in India serves as an excellent example of how international cooperation and dedication can bring about tangible changes in people’s lives.

These initiatives demonstrate that the International Human Rights Commission (IHRC) not only promotes the principles of equality and dignity but also actively works to support education and the development of local communities, building the foundations for a better future for all.
