<strong>and</strong> the mid-day meal? May be this is asking too much of a system that is so enormous <strong>and</strong> impersonal. But there are no shortcuts – children need care, love <strong>and</strong> above all individualised attention. Children are not passive but active participants in the process of their development <strong>and</strong> education. Throughout our research it was the interactions <strong>and</strong> activities with children that gave us an in- depth underst<strong>and</strong>ing of the functioning of the school, teacher attitudes/practices, physical <strong>and</strong> verbal abuse in the classroom, household nutrition/food practices <strong>and</strong> the negative impact they have on children’s self-esteem/dignity. Similarly our underst<strong>and</strong>ing of the world of work with respect to both school-going children <strong>and</strong> those who are out of it provided valuable insights. Therefore, listening to children <strong>and</strong> giving them a voice/a forum is of great importance. Educational Resource Unit Page 100 April 2003
