Country Case Studies 66 iii Preface Save the Children fi ghts for the rights of the child. It bases its work on the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) to achieve lasting benefi ts for children within the communities in which they live, infl uencing policy and practice based on hands-on experience and research. As a pioneering child rights agency, Save the Children has the global mandate and commitment to protect, respect and promote the rights of children in any situation including emergencies. Being a rights based organisation that works from a Child Rights Programming approach, Save the Children is committed to address principles of accountability, non-discrimination and child participation. Children are perceived as mere victims and therefore, their needs and rights are not adequately addressed in policies and rehabilitation programmes carried out by various state and non-state actors. We need to treat them not only as victims but also as actors in the post disaster scenario. This makes it important to mainstream child rights in disaster mitigation and preparedness programmes as well as to build mechanisms that facilitate adequate child participation. The research helps in learning from the past so that we are better prepared for the future. It highlights and asserts the belief in working with children as social actors in change. There are some very good examples of how children and community members can work together to respond to and prepare for disasters. I express my thanks to all the contributors in this key research. Special thanks to Ravi Karkara for bringing forth the need for such a research. I congratulate Bala Raju Nikku, Nepali Sah, Meenakshi Batra and Sibghatullah Ahmed for their hard work and for pulling together this very important piece of work. Last, but most essentially, I thank all the girls and boys for their partnership in bringing about a change. Lisa Lundgren Regional Representative Save the Children Sweden Regional Offi ce for South and Central Asia v Foreword Working from a rights perspective in emergencies implies strengthening the accountability and capacity of all actors such as governments, communities and families to address child protection issues and to re-construct communities. In addition, it implies that all actors must listen to the voices of girls and boys and take actions based on their agenda and priorities and involve them in designing interventions for reconstructions. It also implies that we reach girls and boys from various backgrounds (such as age, caste, class, religion, ethnicity, disabilities) and give them equal possibility to have their voices heard. Further, it implies addressing root causes of rights violations in the reconstruction phase and taking actions to challenge inequalities and discrimination. Furthermore, it is vital to build a large constituency of actors strengthening rights of children and communities. Opportunities to foster children and young people’s understanding, values and experience of democratic participation and active citizenship can occur in families, schools, local and national communities. Children and young people have been involved in activities in diverse geographic and institutional settings at different levels. These include personal and local as well as national, regional and global levels. Children’s participation in institutions and processes of their every day reality is more likely to have a deeper and sustainable impact than participation in remote settings. Homes, schools, the street (for children living on the streets), workplaces (for child workers) and children’s organisations are all important focus areas for participation work. The strength and experience gained in these arenas enhances children and young people’s engagement in policy development.1 Ravi Karkara Regional Programme Manager Save the Children Sweden Regional Offi ce for South and Central Asia 1 Claire O’Kane (2003) Children and Young People as Citizens: Partners for Social Change, Save the Children Sweden vii Acknowledgement This regional research is a combination of secondary and primary research carried out in the South Asian countries.

IDPAD Working Paper No. 4. IDPAD: New Delhi and IDPAD: The Hague, 2006 (www. IDPAD.org). The Project, Co-operation in a Context of Crisis: Public-Private Management of Marine Fisheries in South Asia, was part of the fifth phase of the Indo-Dutch Programme for Alternative Development (2003-2006).

The help of many Government officers is greatly appreciated. On the whole, I was impressed by their professionalism, commitment and concern. They gave me their valuable time; and most of them were extremely candid. Much that they told me was ‘off the record’. I have tried to protect their anonymity by normally not citing them by name in the report. There are far too many to individuals to mention them all.

  • 1. Salient Features of East Godavari District
    District Survey Report - 2018 1. Salient Features of East Godavari District East Godavari District which is one of the largest and the most populous district in the state of Andhra Pradesh, was successively ruled by Mauryas, Sathavahanas, Vishnu Kundins, Eastern Chalukyas, Cholas, Kakatiyas, Musunuri Chieftains, Kondaveeti Reddy Kings, Gajapathis, Kutubshahis and then by the British. It was under the Raj. On April 15, 1925, East Godavari District was formed as per G.O.No.502. East Godavari is the richest district of the state, in terms of GDP. It is both the cultural and tourist hub of the state. East Godavari is a district in Coastal Andhra region of Andhra Pradesh, India. Its district headquarters is at Kakinada. As of Census 2011, it became the most populous district of the state. Rajahmundry and Kakinada are the two large cities in the Godavari districts in terms of population. The district of Rajahmundry (present name Rajamahendravaram) was reorganised in 1859 into two districts of Godavari and Krishna. Godavari District was further bifurcated into East and West Godavari districts in 1925. After Nov 1956, Andhra Pradesh was formed by combining parts of Naizam, Ceded and Circars. In 1959, the Bhadrachalam revenue division, consisting of Bhadrachalam and Naguru Taluqs (2 Taluqas in 1959 but later subdivided into Wajedu, Venkatapruram, Charla, Dummugudem, Bhadrachalam, Nellipaka, Chinturu, Kunavaram, and Vara Rama Chandra Puram mandals) of East Godavari district were merged into the Khammam district. After June 2014's reorganisation and division of Andhra Pradesh, the Mandals of Bhadrachalam (with the exception of Bhadrachalam Temple), Nellipaka, Chinturu, Kunavaram and Vara Rama Chandra Puram were re-added to East Godavari District.
