SRHR publications/research

As of now, Spring Time Camp has not published any formal SRHR research or peer-reviewed papers. However, we have conducted several grassroots-level surveys and field assessments to inform our programs and interventions. These include:

  •  A baseline survey on primary education development in underserved rural communities

  •  A behaviour-focused study on sexual harassment issues in public transportation, specifically targeting women’s experiences and safety

  •  A needs assessment on child development and challenges faced by street and marginalised children in urban zones

Although these research efforts are yet to be published formally, the findings have played a critical role in shaping our field programs and have been shared informally with educators, local stakeholders, and youth groups to drive meaningful action.
