7.2 Best Practices 7.2.1 Describe two best practices successfully implemented by the Institution as per NAAC format

provided in the Manual.

Page 75/99 25-01-2021 09:54:54


https://gfgc.kar.nic.in/harohalli/FileHandler/35-17b771cb-40c9-4b1a-a959-43276a6f23fd


Response:

Best Practices # 1

1. Title of the Practice

“Women empowerment through health care education”

2. Objectives of the Practice

The institute enrollments accounts for more than 60 per cent of the student strength is women over theyears, majority of them were joined from rural areas with varied conditions of utter poverty, illiteracy, ill-health and superstitious beliefs. Since, in their daily lives most of the girls face barricades to educationaffected by poverty, cultural norms and practices, poor infrastructure, violence, and fragility.

The objective of this practice is to provide education and health care and remove the misconceptionsabout various customs and traditions that are prevailing in India which is stopping women from havingnutritious food and taking care of her health properly.

3. The Context

Amid all the influencing factors causes for health and success of a women, education is the only factorvital than anything else, the fascinating fact is that more girl students are coming forward to pursue theirgraduation in our institution. They come from remote villages with varied socio-economic backgrounds,most of them are from under privileged groups and lacks the awareness about many issues related tophysical health, mental health, hygiene, nutrition and so on. Thus, the challenging issues that need to beaddressed in this respect is to provide them proper tips to get solutions to their common problems. In thisrespect, our institution started to provide adequate assistance with regard to health tips for girl students invarious areas, viz., health and hygiene, mental health, HIV/AIDS awareness, Hemoglobin test and folicacid test, breast cancer awareness, awareness on adolescence problems etc.

4. The Practice

“If you educate a man you educate an individual, however, if you educate a woman you educate a wholefamily. Women empowered means mother India empowered”.

– Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru

Our institution has created a healthy environment for the girl students by providing free educationirrespective of their socio-economic background, this was a special women empowerment initiative ofGovernment of Karnataka through all its established institutions to provide girl fee full reimbursementscheme, apart from that the institution is providing various scholarship schemes to students, like SC/STScholarships, OBC Scholarships, Minority Scholarships and Sanchihonnama Merit Scholarship formeritorious girl students etc. In India the women contribute almost half of the total population and isempowered to strengthen the economy.

Education is a milestone for women empowerment because it empowers them to respond to the challenges,

Page 76/99 25-01-2021 09:54:54


to confront their traditional role and change their lives. The access of education to women in rural India ismoving at a very slow pace, still there are a large number of women folks are illiterate, the weak, backwardand exploited. Hence, educating the women is vital as that will shift the position of women in society, andreduce the inequalities also improves the status of their family. This further leads to fulfill the gender gapof four basic categories such as economic participation & opportunity, educational attainment, health &survival and political empowerment.

We as an institution which is having a greater number of girl students than boys are educating the girls insupporting to the overall development, we put in practice several health and hygiene related programs inevery academic year as we believe that, educating girls has a wide range of impact on society and humandevelopment, the long term benefits includes enhanced economic development, education for the nextgeneration, positive influence in a child’s life from health to protection from HIV/AIDS, exploitativelabour and trafficking, when mothers are educated their children are better nourished and get sick lessoften. Fewer maternal deaths, women who have been educated are less likely to die during childbirthbecause they tend to have fewer children, better knowledge of health services during pregnancy and birth,and improved nutrition.

The major constraints were, the girl students were very shy and initially unable to share openly to theDoctors and Health Officers regarding their adolescence and other health & hygiene related problems,refuge to take tests etc.

Best Practices # 2


“Legal literacy and assistance on account of world day of Social Justice”


Legal literacy empowers students to demand justice, reliability and remedies. It enables to anticipate legaltroubles and take the necessary steps in order to prevent their occurrence. Students should be aware of theirrights and a brief legal knowledge, to easily approach for consultation and advice, henceconfronting/averting the crisis. It is a known fact that ignorance of legal knowledge magnifies the impactof the legal troubles and difficulties when they occur.

The objective of this practice is to impart legal knowledge, as the legal issues appear bigger than theyactually are and makes the individual feel unnecessarily intimidated.

The objective of the practice is to “Strengthening community solidarity and supporting grass-roots advocacy.”

3. The Context

All the students of the institution are from rural areas and most of them lack legal literacy, and arenot aware of the rights conferred upon them by law and entitlements under the law. It is this absence oflegal awareness which is responsible for the deception, exploitation and deprivation of rights and benefits,from which the people suffer in the state. The miserable condition in which the people find themselves canbe alleviated to some extent by creating awareness amongst the people. Legal literacy is nothing but anability to enlighten ourselves about legal issues effecting the society we live in and empowerment ofindividuals regarding legal issues. Moreover, it helps to promote consciousness of legal culture,participation in the formation of laws and the rule of law. Legal literacy also called Civic Educationintends to build public awareness and skills related to legal system. It also refers to a field committed toeducate people about law.

4. The Practice

We at our college, every year conduct a full day lecture session with case studies related to legal literacy,on occasion of World Day of Social Justice, to commemorate the accomplishments and recognizing theneed to promote collective action to social justice, which includes efforts to tackle issues suchas poverty, exclusion, gender equality, unemployment, human rights, and social protections for attainingthe social development and human dignity. The topics for educating students about the need for socialjustice include childhood poverty, global citizenship, human rights, and sustainable development.

This program is conducted in coordination with Kanakapura Taluk Law Committee, AdvocatesAssociation Kanakapura and the Police Department Harohalli Circle. Every yer the program is inauguratedand the key note address delivered by the Principal Civil Judge and JMFC, Kanakapura. A team ofmembers will visit the institution and disseminate the knowledge about various legal areas such as, the

Page 78/99 25-01-2021 09:54:54


IRDA regulations and the process of insurance and claims in case of accidents, RTO rules and trafficviolations, Dowry and other violence against women and the consequences, Environmental Laws,Fundamental rights and duties, Consumer Laws, Cyber-crimes and cyber laws, social justice, motor vehicleact etc.


It is evident from the efforts made by the institution that, the students were able to quickly grasp and put inpractice the traffic rules, like obtaining the driving license for riding the two wheelers, started to wear thehelmets while riding, insured their vehicles, and educated their family members especially their farmfathers, who are unaware of their rights in availing certain facilities. The students are inculcated withsustainable environmental practices, and reflected practice by making the campus tobacco free and plasticfree zone, cleaning the premises and nearby primary health center premises, also they learned how torespect fellow human beings and their rights. Apart from these the institution is successful in creating thegraduates as socially responsible, creative and sensible to fight for social justice. As students areconsidered the future leaders so they would be the best medium in spreading the information related tolegal awareness among the people. This practice is also aimed to spread knowledge of the legal rights andduties, to the poor and needy for their various problems.

6. Problems Encountered and Resources Required

The major problem encountered in the process of imparting this best practice is that getting appointmentsof the Principal Judge and JMFC Kanakapura, The Law Committee and the Police Circle Inspector andachieving the coordination with all the team members and bringing them in a single platform. Anotherimportant problem encountered in this practice is the level of students to understand the complicated legalprovisions were limited, hence, it was difficult to simplify the legal literacy and assistance in case ofcertain complex acts and provisions.

The resources required are adequate infrastructure and maintenance facilities to conduct a greater numberof this kind of programs.
