Young Brigade

The program came into effect on 30th Nov 2020 (Martyrdom Day of Major Arvind Bazala). It is situated in Gamharia village in Begusarai District of Bihar, where free education is provided to every child. SMABP primarily focuses on First Generation Learners of rural areas, especially underprivileged children.

Mission "शिक्षा" is a program initiated by the Young Brigade team aimed at promoting education in remote villages. They visit homes to emphasize the importance of education and encourage parents to educate their children. The key points of the mission include motivating children to self-study for two hours in the morning and evening, highlighting that parents are a child's first teachers and should create a conducive learning environment at home. The program also stresses the significance of setting a good example by not using abusive language in front of children and the benefits of education in terms of empowerment and breaking the cycle of poverty.

The program includes the following key activities:
1. Women's Education: Recognizing that women's education is crucial for success, especially in rural areas where many girls don't attend school. The program aims to raise awareness about the importance of education, promoting initiatives like ""Beti Padhao"" to help girls receive an education.
2. Cloth Bag Production: To empower rural women, the program engages them in activities like cloth bag production and making paper-based products, providing them with employment opportunities.
3. Sanitary Napkins: Distributes environmentally friendly sanitary napkins to underprivileged women and emphasizes the importance of health and hygiene.

Young Brigade's vision for the holistic development of the nation includes addressing the growing digital literacy gap. In an era dominated by the booming IT industry, many underprivileged and rural children lack access to modern technology and computer education. Young Brigade aims to bridge this gap by providing basic and advanced training in computer applications. This initiative enables individuals who have been excluded from India's digital revolution to gain the benefits it offers in terms of employability, communication, and functionality.

Young Brigade is actively spreading awareness about dowry deaths, their impact on women and society, and their contribution to issues like domestic violence, abortion, female feticide, and child marriages through data, facts, articles, and webinars.

The program highlights the prevalence of cybercrime in India, with approximately 80 people falling victim to such crimes every minute. To address this issue, Young Brigade works as a community on cybercrime prevention and justice, particularly for women. State police departments typically have special units to handle complex cybercrime cases involving women and children as victims. They act as intermediaries between victims and law enforcement, aiming to provide free cyber-related information to local, state, and tribal law enforcement agencies. Their website serves as a valuable resource for law enforcement officers and partners, offering information and guidance to protect, respond to, and recover from cyber threats and cybercrime.
