On the 19th January 2014 children from Indira Nagar Gharkul in Miraj attended a workshop focused on sanitation. The children are from a slum which was relocated at the beginning of 2013 to allow the construction of houses that will accommodate them and other slum families in proximity of the site which are on land that cannot be redeveloped, according to the local land use plan, for residential purposes. Their new houses are being constructed as part of Shelter Associates’ city-wide slum housing project in Sangli and Miraj. 36 children attended and put forward their own thoughts regarding sanitation.
