Over the past four decades, Bachpan Bachao Andolan (BBA) has, through concerted and sustained actions, demonstrated that the need for a childfriendly society can be achieved through direct and continued grassroots level interaction. It continues to fight against all kinds of child rights violation, including child labour, child trafficking and child sexual abuse.
About Us
Started in 1980, BBA is India’s largest grassroots movement that works for the protection of children’s rights in the country. Founded by Nobel Peace Laureate Kailash Satyarthi, BBA envisions a society where children are not subjected to the violence of trafficking and slavery. Since its inception, the organisation has been instrumental in rescuing over 90,000 victims from situations of slavery and trafficking for forced labour.
Currently a pan-India movement, BBA has presence in 20 states. Its core activities are run and managed through the registered entity called ‘Association for Voluntary Action’ (AVA).

To create a child-friendly world in which all children are free from exploitation and abuse.
