A pilot project at Garden Reach slum was very successful, and Swayam plans to bring its team to our clinics once a week where its staff will bring in awareness through skits, songs, etc. about the gender-based issues such as child marriage, domestic violence and girl-boy inequality. <\/p>\n<p>Ongoing<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Calcutta Rescue held holdsworkshops in 20 slums, in co-operation with the leading Gender Based <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":5421,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5420","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","entry","has-media"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/calcuttarescue.org\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5420","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/calcuttarescue.org\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/calcuttarescue.org\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/calcuttarescue.org\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/calcuttarescue.org\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5420"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/calcuttarescue.org\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5420\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5464,"href":"https:\/\/calcuttarescue.org\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5420\/revisions\/5464"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/calcuttarescue.org\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5421"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/calcuttarescue.org\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5420"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/calcuttarescue.org\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5420"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/calcuttarescue.org\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5420"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
