Major Activities/Achievements : Human Resource Development Foundation (HRDF) runs a Child Resource Center named Bal Shishu Niketan set up in 1990 in village Nadwasarai, tehsil Ghosi, district Mau, UP. The school now has over 450 students studying up to class 8, of whom about 25 percent are girls. The students are a happy mix of children from all castes and communities, including Muslim and Harijan. The school Library is popular among the students and many new books and other materials, especially in Hindi, are added to the stock. The school endeavors to provide quality education, both formal and informal. The Human Resource Development Foundation has also been conducting workshops on Explaining the Scientific Basis of Miracles sponsored by the National Council for Science and Technology Communication (NCSTC), Department of Science and Technology, Government of India. These workshops are specially designed to train teachers and social activists in understanding the science and psychology behind miracle, magic, jadutona, and related superstitions prevalent in Indian society. We have already conducted about 60 such workshops, besides over 200 public demonstrations including those in fairs, and nearly 100 classroom activity workshops in schools and colleges. Recently, HRDF conducted a program in 30 schools of district Mau. The program was sponsored by the Institute for Humanist Studies, Albany, New York. The program was inaugurated on 15 September 2009 at Bal Shishu Niketan and was attended by students, their parents and a large number of local villagers. The program was extensively covered by the media throughout. Newspapers like Hindustan, Aaaj, Amar Ujala, and Mau Jagran gave extensive coverage to the program. The program was also extensively covered by Sahara Samay TV channel. The HRDF has also been conducting workshops on a variety of scientific topics to promote scientific temper among the masses. These include low cost science teaching aids, do it yourself science experiments, origami, vermicomposting, and other hands on activities.
