Conclusion N2 - Annabel Mehta, a long-time resident of Mumbai and dedicated member of Apnalaya, reflects on her 43-year journey with the organization in addressing poverty in areas like Shivaji Nagar. Despite significant progress in areas like child health and education, a recent Situation Analysis Report sheds light on persisting challenges, including water scarcity, child marriage, inadequate schooling, and chronic illness among children. Mehta urges for an Integrated Community Development approach involving partnerships between NGOs, government, and municipal authorities to effectively address these issues and improve conditions for the marginalized residents of Shivaji Nagar.
