Director - Communications & Partnerships - NGO

Organization: THE AANGAN TRUST

Job Title: DIRECTOR COMMUNICATIONS AND PARTNERSHIPS

Reports to: CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

Location: DELHI

Introduction:

Established in 2000, Aangan's work begins when laws, state policies, community or parents fail to protect a child from abuse, violence, conflict, neglect and exploitation. 40% of India's children are vulnerable. Whether they are children living in the harsh jail-like conditions of state-run children's institutions, or children engaging in dangerous work or risky activities or facing social exclusion in urban slums, we firmly believe that only a safe, supported child can cope effectively with difficult circumstances, access healthcare, education or meaningful livelihood - thus protection is at the core of all our programs.
