Around 6000 children die every day in India; one child every fifteen seconds. Most of these deaths are preventable.
CINI helps mothers and children in India break free from the cycle of poverty. It reaches out across all levels of Indian society by going from door to door in the villages and slums as well as talking to locally elected representatives and influencing public policy. Adopting a multi-layered, rights based approach, CINI works towards a sustainable improvement in nutrition, healthcare and education while trying to protect children whose lives are blighted by poverty.
