Child Safety Week 2025 💪

Child Sexual Abuse remains one of India’s most urgent yet under-addressed issues. To strengthen awareness and collective responsibility, Team IEC was proud to collaborate with Arpan, the nation’s leading organisation working to prevent Child Sexual Abuse, during Child Safety Week.

This year’s theme, , delivers an uncompromising message of enforcement and deterrence:
👉 Child Sexual Abuse is a punishable offence. If you abuse a child, the law will catch you.

Through our engagements with students, teachers, doctors, and caregivers, we worked to:
• Build awareness about CSA
• Strengthen understanding of the POCSO Act
• Encourage reporting and collective vigilance
• Empower communities to act, not stay silent

A heartfelt thank you to Arpan for equipping us with the tools, training, and partnership to make this week truly impactful.

Together, let’s work toward a future where every child is protected, believed, and safe. 🧡

Cleft care is more than a medical journey, it’s also an emotional one.
Living with a visible difference can shape how one feels, speaks, connects, and is seen by the world.

At IEC, we believe that healing must include the emotional journey too, for individuals and for families.

Since May, we’ve been proud to collaborate with SIRAT Cleft Foundation, whose vision of moving from Soorat to Sirat, from outward appearance to inner strength, inspires us.

Together, we’re working toward a future where every cleft warrior is empowered with equal opportunity, care, and dignity. 💪🏼

13 children and families supported so far. And we’re only getting started! 💛

This year’s World No To***co Day theme, “Unmasking the Appeal: Exposing Industry Tactics on To***co and Ni****ne Products,” hit close to home.

Because when six-year-olds are tasting gutka, we are no longer talking about isolated habits, we are confronting a public health crisis engineered by design.

At IEC, we believe awareness isn’t just about information, it’s about connection.

Thank you to all who joined us with heart, honesty, and hope. From open conversations to grounding practices, each moment became a step toward reclaiming breath, health, and choice.

Together, we’re unmasking the appeal, and imagining a tobacco-free future.

Families are where we first learn how to feel, how to ask for support, how to be heard, how to rest.

This , Team IEC wishes every kind of family the space to care.. gently, daily, and with intention.

Mental health starts at home.
And care doesn’t need to be loud to be real.

Celebrating World Mental Health Day was a heartwarming journey as students from S.A. Public School expressed their vision of a 'happy school' through the art of drawing. Each masterpiece reflected a safe and loving space where they feel supported to learn and grow.

Together, we embraced the beauty of creativity and the importance of mental well-being in our educational community. Our mental health day celebration extended beyond the classroom, as we engaged with our team and community members in various meaningful ways. Stay tuned for more highlights on how we collectively honoured this important day! 🌈✏️
