I, Harkrishan Singh, along with my classmates joined PAPN, Andheri for one month internship on 1st June, 2017. People's Action for People in Need is a non-profit Voluntary Organisation. It was established in 1982. It is working to uplift the marginalized and oppressed sections of the hilly and rural area, it's working in collaboration with CRY-Child Rights and You, Action Aid Association, Childline India Foundation and JAGORI Himachal in different blocks of Sirmour and Panchkula. I found staff members very cooperative while interacting with them. Locals were
also very helpful. I
interacted with Dalit Community, Bal Panchayat, MNREGA Workers through meetings,
which was very interactive and beneficial for intern as it helped in improving
my social skills. It never seemed easy to us because of the distances to be
covered on foot, unending need for water, lifts to be taken because of limited
bus service. Exploring new destinations and people through this internship with
PAPN was awesome experience.
