About NUSRL, Ranchi
NUSRL, Ranchi was established with the vision nurtured that law, legal system and legal institutions have an overarching role for human, social, political and economic development of the nation. Law is one of those social and fundamental processes having the maximum filtering capacity of societal processes for healthier growth of democracy and constitutional rule. India in the 21st century and beyond having a rich heritage of legal culture, thoughts and traditions needs to tread the path where the law has to act as catalyst in achieving the goals enshrined in the Constitution and law being an instrument in achieving these goals needs a new perspective for its understanding, dissemination and structural innovations.
With due consideration to all the above pertinent facts, NUSRL spread its opinions in diverse horizons to develop a holistic perspective of legal education in all its ramifications particularly advocacy, judicial and legal institutional services, legislation, law reforms and research. It has opened new avenues as centers for learning and fostering harmonised discipline. Center for Child Rights (CCR) under the wings of NUSRL is one such opportunity where the rights and entitlements pertaining to children are discussed and it provides a platform to those who want to pursue their career in the field of Child Rights and allied issues. CCR is committed and has taken the initiative to create consciousness among the general public and render support to the State’s initiative in the implementation of the aim and aspiration as specified in the national and international legal instruments with special focus on children, with provisions as outlined in the Indian Constitution. In order to establish CCR as Center of Excellence, UNICEF too has generously funded and rendered immense support so that CCR is set and established as a learning as well as excellence centre where rights and prerogatives related to children are discussed and children too find it easily and at front during their crisis hours. CCR has undertaken many activities where it has successfully conducted seminars, trainings and workshops for different functionaries related to law and allied fields referring to the rights and protection domain of children. The faculty members, especially the Chairperson at CCR works relentlessly with her unlimited zeal and vast experience in the field to cater to the needs of the desired audience. The student members at the Center have helped and facilitated many local organisations for preparation of ready reckoners for police officers and modules on laws related to children besides acting as rapporteurs for State Level Meetings and Consultations. The team of Technical Consultants too aim at executing the plans as per the desired goals and setting the stage to create this Center as Center of Excellence.
