Internship Opportunity At CCR, NUSRL Ranchi: Focus On Child Rights & Protection

NUSRL, Ranchi was established with the vision that law, legal system and legal institutions have a role for human, social, political and economic development of the nation. Law is one of those social and fundamental processes having the maximum filtering capacity of societal processes for healthier growth of democracy and constitutional rule. India in the 21st century and beyond having a heritage of legal culture, thoughts and traditions needs to tread the path where the law has to act as catalyst in achieving the goals of the Constitution and law being an instrument in achieving these goals needs a new perspective for its understanding, dissemination and structural innovations.

Center for Child Rights (CCR) under the wings of NUSRL is one such opportunity where the rights and entitlements pertaining to children are discussed and it provides a platform to those who want to pursue their career in the field of Child Rights and allied issues. CCR is committed and has taken the initiative to create consciousness among the general public and render support to the State's initiative in the implementation of the aim and aspiration as specified in the national and international legal instruments with special focus on children, with provisions as outlined in the Indian Constitution. In order to establish CCR as Center of Excellence, UNICEF too has funded and rendered immense support so that CCR is set and established as a learning as well as excellence centre where rights and prerogatives related to children are discussed and children too find it easily and at front during their crisis hours. CCR has undertaken many activities where it has conducted seminars, trainings and workshops for different functionaries related to law and allied fields referring to the rights and protection domain of children.
