Youth for
Anti-trafficking Crusade
 In
a youth leadership development programme organized by the Diocese of
Patna, Church of North India, at Diocesan School from 6th
to 9th November 2008 the delegates committed themselves to
work for anti-trafficking crusade initiated by the Synod in the
region. The Bihar state
in eastern India records a high rate of human trafficking. Having understood the issue and discussing their role as
church youth, the delegates are confident that they can make
difference. The programme
was facilitated by Mr. Pradip Bansrior and Mr. Kasta Dip.
The Rt. Rev. Dr. P. P. Marandih, Diocesan Bishop and Deputy
Moderator of Church of North India Synod sent off the delegates at the
valedictory service. Out
of 65 delegates a selective 12, who are theatrically potential, has
been chosen who would be given training by professionals on street
theatre. The trainee will
make the street theatre a tool of communication to make the people
aware of the issue. The
programme was aimed at empowering the youth for leadership and
conscientizing them on social issues like human trafficking, poverty
and oppression.
