The Concerned for Working Children (CWC)

The Concerned for Working Children (CWC) is a not-for-profit, secular, democratic development agency, working for over four decades as a pioneering organisation in the field of children’s rights and civil society participation in Asia. We have been thrice nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize in 2012, 2013 and 2014. Active since the late 1970s, we were one of the first organisations in India to focus on working children and their needs. We have since become widely recognised as a world leader in children’s rights, particularly children’s right to self-determination. CWC works in partnership with children and their communities; local governments; and national and international agencies to implement viable, comprehensive and appropriate solutions to address the various problems that children and their communities face. We are committed to empowering children and ensuring their democratic participation in all matters that affect them.
