In early 2025, large-scale demolitions in Beyt Dwarka uprooted over 2,930 people, including hundreds of school-going children. Homes were reduced to rubble overnight to make way for tourism infrastructure. The aftermath was more than physical loss, 114 children dropped out, classrooms emptied, and angered families disengaged from education altogether.
Amid this crisis, CSPC’s Community Facilitators took the lead. Collaborating with school authorities and SMCs, they conducted door-to-door visits, addressing emotional concerns and guiding families through re-enrollment. After weeks of trust-building, 53 children were successfully brought back to school across Okha, Arambhada, and Krishnanagar.
This effort is evidence of community-driven recovery, where education became the first step in healing. The re-enrollment of these children wasn’t just a return to school; it was a reclaiming of dignity, stability, and hope.
