Together with Part 1, these briefings show the interlinkages between education and the economic disadvantages faced by children from the manual scavenging community. The briefings provide an overview of the different government programmes and scholarships intended to address this problem, outline the challenges faced by the children in trying to access these entitlements, analyse recent budget allocations for these programmes (including the highly concerning removal of a separate scholarship specifically for children of those engaged in manual scavenging) and propose recommendations.
