Creating alert, informed and active citizens

#mondaymotivation

As part of one of the ACTiZENS’ Club activities, students from two government schools in Madhya Pradesh identified safety concerns within their school premises and took initiative to address them.

At Government High School, Ujjain, students raised concerns about unsafe playground conditions caused by potholes that posed a risk of injury. Guided by their teacher, they wrote a letter to the school Principal requesting action.

At Government High School, Jiran (Neemuch district), students highlighted the problem of overgrown grass and plants outside their classroom, which created fear of reptiles and poisonous animals. They too expressed their concern through a formal letter.

Impact: In both schools, the Principals responded promptly. The playground in Ujjain was levelled with murum (gravel), and the overgrown area in Jiran was cleared—making school spaces safer and more usable for students.

Students are trusted with responsibility. Citizenship is not lectured upon; it is demonstrated. Given space and trust, children from underserved communities often step into problem-solving and leadership roles within their own neighbourhoods.”

In the latest article on the Desh Apnayen blog, Ms. Anubha Sharma writes: “Angel Xpress Foundation works closely with adolescents because this is the stage when values, identity, and worldviews take shape. Rather than teaching citizenship as theory, we create opportunities for it to be experienced. When young people see that small, local actions can bring visible change, responsibility begins to feel personal and possible.”
