Role of NGO's

ROLE OF NON-GOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATION IN INTEGRATED EDUCATION FOR DISABLED

In the education sector, non-governmental organizations have been making very meaningful contributions. Work related to pedagogy, mainstreaming out of school children, developing effective teacher training programme, organizing community for capacity development for planning and implementation, expressing gender concerns, work in the sphere of disability among children, are some such examples.

NGO’S INTERVENTION WITH CHLDREN WITH ORTHOPEDIC DISABLED

• To provide school access to all the Children with special needs.
• To Provide necessary supporting services to the children with special needs in the context of education.
• To reduce the gaps between the normal children and children with special needs in the context of education.
• To involve parents and community in the process of educating the children with Special needs.
• To empower the teachers and parents to manage the CWSN in the process of education. 

NGOs can discharge a very useful role in advocacy as well as accountability of the Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan.   Under the Integrated Education for Disabled (IED), Under the Education Guarantee Scheme (EGS) and Alternative and Innovative Education (AIE), it has been decided to fund NGOs (other than experimental and innovative Projects) through State Implementation Societies. It will also be possible to record the contribution of NGO Projects in the District Elementary Education Plans, as their interventions would also be made in the DEEP. It will facilitate transparency of NGO activities also. Substantial partnership of NGOs is conceived through community organisations like VEC, PTA, MTA, SMCs, etc. This is suggested so that NGOs actually participate in building capacities in the community. Efforts to explore a longer-term partnership with NGOs with a well-defined arrangement for continuity will be encouraged.
